# Tutorial: Azure AD SSO integration with OpenLearning
18+
19+
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate OpenLearning with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate OpenLearning with Azure AD, you can:
20+
21+
* Control in Azure AD who has access to OpenLearning.
22+
* Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to OpenLearning with their Azure AD accounts.
23+
* Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.
24+
25+
## Prerequisites
26+
27+
To get started, you need the following items:
28+
29+
* An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a [free account](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/).
30+
* OpenLearning single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
31+
32+
## Scenario description
33+
34+
In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.
35+
36+
* OpenLearning supports **SP** initiated SSO.
37+
38+
## Add OpenLearning from the gallery
39+
40+
To configure the integration of OpenLearning into Azure AD, you need to add OpenLearning from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
41+
42+
1. Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
43+
1. On the left navigation pane, select the **Azure Active Directory** service.
44+
1. Navigate to **Enterprise Applications** and then select **All Applications**.
45+
1. To add new application, select **New application**.
46+
1. In the **Add from the gallery** section, type **OpenLearning** in the search box.
47+
1. Select **OpenLearning** from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
48+
49+
## Configure and test Azure AD SSO for OpenLearning
50+
51+
Configure and test Azure AD SSO with OpenLearning using a test user called **B.Simon**. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between an Azure AD user and the related user in OpenLearning.
52+
53+
To configure and test Azure AD SSO with OpenLearning, perform the following steps:
54+
55+
1. **[Configure Azure AD SSO](#configure-azure-ad-sso)** - to enable your users to use this feature.
56+
1. **[Create an Azure AD test user](#create-an-azure-ad-test-user)** - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
57+
1. **[Assign the Azure AD test user](#assign-the-azure-ad-test-user)** - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
58+
1. **[Configure OpenLearning SSO](#configure-openlearning-sso)** - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
59+
1. **[Create OpenLearning test user](#create-openlearning-test-user)** - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in OpenLearning that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
60+
1. **[Test SSO](#test-sso)** - to verify whether the configuration works.
61+
62+
## Configure Azure AD SSO
63+
64+
Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
65+
66+
1. In the Azure portal, on the **OpenLearning** application integration page, find the **Manage** section and select **single sign-on**.
67+
1. On the **Select a single sign-on method** page, select **SAML**.
68+
1. On the **Set up single sign-on with SAML** page, click the pencil icon for **Basic SAML Configuration** to edit the settings.
69+
70+
![Edit Basic SAML Configuration](common/edit-urls.png)
71+
72+
1. On the **Basic SAML Configuration** section, if you have **Service Provider metadata file**, perform the following steps:
73+
74+
a. Click **Upload metadata file**.
75+
76+
![Upload metadata file](common/upload-metadata.png)
77+
78+
b. Click on **folder logo** to select the metadata file and click **Upload**.
79+
80+
![choose metadata file](common/browse-upload-metadata.png)
81+
82+
c. After the metadata file is successfully uploaded, the **Identifier** value gets auto populated in Basic SAML Configuration section.
83+
84+
d. In the **Sign-on URL** text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
85+
`https://www.openlearning.com/saml-redirect/<institution_id>/<idp_name>/`
86+
87+
> [!Note]
88+
> If the **Identifier** value does not get auto populated, then please fill in the value manually according to your requirement. The Sign-on URL value is not real. Update this value with the actual Sign-on URL. Contact [OpenLearning Client support team](mailto:[email protected]) to get this value. You can also refer to the patterns shown in the **Basic SAML Configuration** section in the Azure portal.
89+
90+
1. On the **Set up single sign-on with SAML** page, in the **SAML Signing Certificate** section, find **Certificate (Base64)** and select **Download** to download the certificate and save it on your computer.
91+
92+
![The Certificate download link](common/certificatebase64.png)
93+
94+
1. On the **Set up OpenLearning** section, copy the appropriate URL(s) based on your requirement.
95+
96+
![Copy configuration URLs](common/copy-configuration-urls.png)
97+
98+
1. OpenLearning application expects to enable token encryption in order to make SSO work. To activate token encryption, go to the **Azure Active Directory** > **Enterprise applications** and select **Token encryption**. For more information, please refer this [link](../manage-apps/howto-saml-token-encryption.md).

167+
168+
* You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the OpenLearning tile in the My Apps, this will redirect to OpenLearning Sign-on URL. For more information about the My Apps, see [Introduction to the My Apps](../user-help/my-apps-portal-end-user-access.md).
