# Tutorial: Azure AD SSO integration with Valence Security Platform
18+
19+
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Valence Security Platform with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate Valence Security Platform with Azure AD, you can:
20+
21+
* Control in Azure AD who has access to Valence Security Platform.
22+
* Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Valence Security Platform 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+
* Valence Security Platform single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
31+
* Along with Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator can also add or manage applications in Azure AD.
32+
For more information, see [Azure built-in roles](../roles/permissions-reference.md).
33+
34+
## Scenario description
35+
36+
In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.
37+
38+
* Valence Security Platform supports **IDP** initiated SSO.
39+
40+
## Add Valence Security Platform from the gallery
41+
42+
To configure the integration of Valence Security Platform into Azure AD, you need to add Valence Security Platform from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
43+
44+
1. Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
45+
1. On the left navigation pane, select the **Azure Active Directory** service.
46+
1. Navigate to **Enterprise Applications** and then select **All Applications**.
47+
1. To add new application, select **New application**.
48+
1. In the **Add from the gallery** section, type **Valence Security Platform** in the search box.
49+
1. Select **Valence Security Platform** from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
50+
51+
Alternatively, you can also use the [Enterprise App Configuration Wizard](https://portal.office.com/AdminPortal/home?Q=Docs#/azureadappintegration). In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. You can learn more about O365 wizards [here](/microsoft-365/admin/misc/azure-ad-setup-guides?view=o365-worldwide&preserve-view=true).
52+
53+
## Configure and test Azure AD SSO for Valence Security Platform
54+
55+
Configure and test Azure AD SSO with Valence Security Platform 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 Valence Security Platform.
56+
57+
To configure and test Azure AD SSO with Valence Security Platform, perform the following steps:
58+
59+
1. **[Configure Azure AD SSO](#configure-azure-ad-sso)** - to enable your users to use this feature.
60+
1. **[Create an Azure AD test user](#create-an-azure-ad-test-user)** - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
61+
1. **[Assign the Azure AD test user](#assign-the-azure-ad-test-user)** - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
62+
1. **[Configure Valence Security Platform SSO](#configure-valence-security-platform-sso)** - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
63+
1. **[Create Valence Security Platform test user](#create-valence-security-platform-test-user)** - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Valence Security Platform that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
64+
1. **[Test SSO](#test-sso)** - to verify whether the configuration works.
65+
66+
## Configure Azure AD SSO
67+
68+
Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
69+
70+
1. In the Azure portal, on the **Valence Security Platform** application integration page, find the **Manage** section and select **single sign-on**.
71+
1. On the **Select a single sign-on method** page, select **SAML**.
72+
1. On the **Set up single sign-on with SAML** page, click the pencil icon for **Basic SAML Configuration** to edit the settings.
73+
74+
![Screenshot shows to edit Basic SAML Configuration.](common/edit-urls.png "Basic Configuration")
75+
76+
1. On the **Basic SAML Configuration** section, perform the following steps:

84+
> [!Note]
85+
> These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Identifier and Reply URL. Contact [Valence Security Platform support team](mailto:[email protected]) to get these values. You can also refer to the patterns shown in the **Basic SAML Configuration** section in the Azure portal.
86+
87+
1. On the **Set-up single sign-on with SAML** page, in the **SAML Signing Certificate** section, find **Federation Metadata XML** and select **Download** to download the certificate and save it on your computer.
88+

94+
95+
### Create an Azure AD test user
96+
97+
In this section, you'll create a test user in the Azure portal called B.Simon.
98+
99+
1. From the left pane in the Azure portal, select **Azure Active Directory**, select **Users**, and then select **All users**.
100+
1. Select **New user** at the top of the screen.
101+
1. In the **User** properties, follow these steps:
102+
1. In the **Name** field, enter `B.Simon`.
103+
1. In the **User name** field, enter the [email protected]. For example, `[email protected]`.
104+
1. Select the **Show password** check box, and then write down the value that's displayed in the **Password** box.
105+
1. Click **Create**.
106+
107+
### Assign the Azure AD test user
108+
109+
In this section, you'll enable B.Simon to use Azure single sign-on by granting access to Valence Security Platform.
110+
111+
1. In the Azure portal, select **Enterprise Applications**, and then select **All applications**.
112+
1. In the applications list, select **Valence Security Platform**.
113+
1. In the app's overview page, find the **Manage** section and select **Users and groups**.
114+
1. Select **Add user**, then select **Users and groups** in the **Add Assignment** dialog.
115+
1. In the **Users and groups** dialog, select **B.Simon** from the Users list, then click the **Select** button at the bottom of the screen.
116+
1. If you are expecting a role to be assigned to the users, you can select it from the **Select a role** dropdown. If no role has been set up for this app, you see "Default Access" role selected.
117+
1. In the **Add Assignment** dialog, click the **Assign** button.
118+
119+
## Configure Valence Security Platform SSO
120+
121+
To configure single sign-on on **Valence Security Platform** side, you need to send the downloaded **Federation Metadata XML** and appropriate copied URLs from Azure portal to [Valence Security Platform support team](mailto:[email protected]). They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.
122+
123+
### Create Valence Security Platform test user
124+
125+
In this section, you create a user called Britta Simon in Valence Security Platform. Work with [Valence Security Platform support team](mailto:[email protected]) to add the users in the Valence Security Platform platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.
126+
127+
## Test SSO
128+
129+
In this section, you test your Azure AD single sign-on configuration with following options.
130+
131+
* Click on Test this application in Azure portal and you should be automatically signed in to the Valence Security Platform for which you set up the SSO.
132+
133+
* You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the Valence Security Platform tile in the My Apps, you should be automatically signed in to the Valence Security Platform for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see [Introduction to the My Apps](../user-help/my-apps-portal-end-user-access.md).
134+
135+
## Next steps
136+
137+
Once you configure Valence Security Platform you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. [Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Cloud App Security](/cloud-app-security/proxy-deployment-aad).
