# Tutorial: Azure Active Directory single sign-on (SSO) integration with LIFT
23+
24+
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate LIFT with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate LIFT with Azure AD, you can:
25+
26+
* Control in Azure AD who has access to LIFT.
27+
* Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to LIFT with their Azure AD accounts.
28+
* Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.
29+
30+
To learn more about SaaS app integration with Azure AD, see [What is application access and single sign-on with Azure Active Directory](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/what-is-single-sign-on).
31+
32+
## Prerequisites
33+
34+
To get started, you need the following items:
35+
36+
* An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a [free account](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/).
37+
* LIFT single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
38+
39+
## Scenario description
40+
41+
In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.
42+
43+
* LIFT supports **SP** initiated SSO
44+
* Once you configure LIFT you can enforce Session Control, which protect exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real-time. Session Control extend from Conditional Access. [Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Cloud App Security](https://docs.microsoft.com/cloud-app-security/proxy-deployment-aad)

## Adding LIFT from the gallery
47+
48+
To configure the integration of LIFT into Azure AD, you need to add LIFT from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
49+
50+
1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com) using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
51+
1. On the left navigation pane, select the **Azure Active Directory** service.
52+
1. Navigate to **Enterprise Applications** and then select **All Applications**.
53+
1. To add new application, select **New application**.
54+
1. In the **Add from the gallery** section, type **LIFT** in the search box.
55+
1. Select **LIFT** from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
56+
57+
58+
## Configure and test Azure AD single sign-on for LIFT
59+
60+
Configure and test Azure AD SSO with LIFT 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 LIFT.
61+
62+
To configure and test Azure AD SSO with LIFT, complete the following building blocks:
63+
64+
1. **[Configure Azure AD SSO](#configure-azure-ad-sso)** - to enable your users to use this feature.
65+
1. **[Create an Azure AD test user](#create-an-azure-ad-test-user)** - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
66+
1. **[Assign the Azure AD test user](#assign-the-azure-ad-test-user)** - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
67+
1. **[Configure LIFT SSO](#configure-lift-sso)** - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
68+
1. **[Create LIFT test user](#create-lift-test-user)** - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in LIFT that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
69+
1. **[Test SSO](#test-sso)** - to verify whether the configuration works.
70+
71+
## Configure Azure AD SSO
72+
73+
Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
74+
75+
1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/), on the **LIFT** application integration page, find the **Manage** section and select **single sign-on**.
76+
1. On the **Select a single sign-on method** page, select **SAML**.
77+
1. On the **Set up single sign-on with SAML** page, click the edit/pen icon for **Basic SAML Configuration** to edit the settings.
78+
79+

91+
92+
93+

100+
101+
1. From the left pane in the Azure portal, select **Azure Active Directory**, select **Users**, and then select **All users**.
102+
1. Select **New user** at the top of the screen.

107+
1. Click **Create**.
108+
109+
### Assign the Azure AD test user
110+
111+
In this section, you'll enable B.Simon to use Azure single sign-on by granting access to LIFT.
112+
113+
1. In the Azure portal, select **Enterprise Applications**, and then select **All applications**.
114+
1. In the applications list, select **LIFT**.
115+

124+
1. If you're expecting any role value in the SAML assertion, in the **Select Role** dialog, select the appropriate role for the user from the list and then click the **Select** button at the bottom of the screen.
125+
1. In the **Add Assignment** dialog, click the **Assign** button.
126+
127+
128+
## Configure LIFT SSO
129+
130+

131+
132+
### Create LIFT test user
133+
134+
In this section, you create a user called B.Simon in LIFT. Work with [LIFT support team](mailto:[email protected]) to add the users in the LIFT platform.
135+
136+
## Test SSO
137+
138+
In this section, you test your Azure AD single sign-on configuration using the Access Panel.
139+
140+
When you click the LIFT tile in the Access Panel, you should be automatically signed in to the LIFT for which you set up SSO. For more information about the Access Panel, see [Introduction to the Access Panel](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/active-directory-saas-access-panel-introduction).
