+# Tutorial: Azure AD SSO integration with Flexera One
+
+In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Flexera One with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate Flexera One with Azure AD, you can:
+
+* Control in Azure AD who has access to Flexera One.
+* Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Flexera One with their Azure AD accounts.
+* Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+To get started, you need the following items:
+
+* An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a [free account](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/).
+* Flexera One single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
+
+## Scenario description
+
+In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD SSO in a test environment.
+
+* Flexera One supports **SP and IDP** initiated SSO.
+* Flexera One supports **Just In Time** user provisioning.
+
+## Add Flexera One from the gallery
+
+To configure the integration of Flexera One into Azure AD, you need to add Flexera One from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
+
+1. Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
+1. On the left navigation pane, select the **Azure Active Directory** service.
+1. Navigate to **Enterprise Applications** and then select **All Applications**.
+1. To add new application, select **New application**.
+1. In the **Add from the gallery** section, type **Flexera One** in the search box.
+1. Select **Flexera One** from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
+
+## Configure and test Azure AD SSO for Flexera One
+
+Configure and test Azure AD SSO with Flexera One 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 Flexera One.
+
+To configure and test Azure AD SSO with Flexera One, perform the following steps:
+
+1. **[Configure Azure AD SSO](#configure-azure-ad-sso)** - to enable your users to use this feature.
+    1. **[Create an Azure AD test user](#create-an-azure-ad-test-user)** - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
+    1. **[Assign the Azure AD test user](#assign-the-azure-ad-test-user)** - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
+1. **[Configure Flexera One SSO](#configure-flexera-one-sso)** - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
+    1. **[Create Flexera One test user](#create-flexera-one-test-user)** - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Flexera One that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
+1. **[Test SSO](#test-sso)** - to verify whether the configuration works.
+
+## Configure Azure AD SSO
+
+Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
+
+1. In the Azure portal, on the **Flexera One** application integration page, find the **Manage** section and select **single sign-on**.
+1. On the **Select a single sign-on method** page, select **SAML**.
+1. On the **Set up single sign-on with SAML** page, click the pencil icon for **Basic SAML Configuration** to edit the settings.
+
+   ![Edit Basic SAML Configuration](common/edit-urls.png)
+
+1. On the **Basic SAML Configuration** section, perform the following steps: 
+
+    a. In the **Identifier** text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
+    `https://secure.flexera.com/sso/saml2/<ID>`
+
+    b. In the **Reply URL** text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
+    `https://secure.flexera.com/sso/saml2/<ID>`
+
+    c. In the **Sign-on URL** text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
+    `https://secure.flexera.com/sso/saml2/<ID>`
+
+	> [!NOTE]
+	> These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Identifier, Reply URL and Sign-on URL. Contact [Flexera One Client 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.
+
+1. Flexera One application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format, which requires you to add custom attribute mappings to your SAML token attributes configuration. The following screenshot shows the list of default attributes.
+
+	![image](common/default-attributes.png)
+
+1. In addition to above, Flexera One application expects few more attributes to be passed back in SAML response which are shown below. These attributes are also pre populated but you can review them as per your requirements.
+	
+	| Name | Source Attribute |
+	| ------- | --------- |
+	| firstName | user.givenname |
+    | lastName | user.surname |
+
+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.
+
+	![The Certificate download link](common/certificatebase64.png)
+
+1. On the **Set up Flexera One** section, copy the appropriate URL(s) based on your requirement.
+
+	![Copy configuration URLs](common/copy-configuration-urls.png)
+
+### Create an Azure AD test user
+
+In this section, you'll create a test user in the Azure portal called B.Simon.
+
+1. From the left pane in the Azure portal, select **Azure Active Directory**, select **Users**, and then select **All users**.
+1. Select **New user** at the top of the screen.
+1. In the **User** properties, follow these steps:
+   1. In the **Name** field, enter `B.Simon`.  
+   1. In the **User name** field, enter the [email protected]. For example, `[email protected]`.
+   1. Select the **Show password** check box, and then write down the value that's displayed in the **Password** box.
+   1. Click **Create**.
+
+### Assign the Azure AD test user
+
+In this section, you'll enable B.Simon to use Azure single sign-on by granting access to Flexera One.
+
+1. In the Azure portal, select **Enterprise Applications**, and then select **All applications**.
+1. In the applications list, select **Flexera One**.
+1. In the app's overview page, find the **Manage** section and select **Users and groups**.
+1. Select **Add user**, then select **Users and groups** in the **Add Assignment** dialog.
+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.
+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.
+1. In the **Add Assignment** dialog, click the **Assign** button.
+
+## Configure Flexera One SSO
+
+To configure single sign-on on **Flexera One** side, you need to send the downloaded **Certificate (Base64)** and appropriate copied URLs from Azure portal to [Flexera One support team](mailto:[email protected]). They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides. Learn [how](https://docs.flexera.com/flexera/EN/Administration/AzureADSSO.htm).
+
+### Create Flexera One test user
+
+In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Flexera One. Flexera One supports just-in-time user provisioning, which is enabled by default. There is no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in Flexera One, a new one is created after authentication.
+
+## Test SSO 
+
+In this section, you test your Azure AD single sign-on configuration with following options. 
+
+#### SP initiated:
+
+* Click on **Test this application** in Azure portal. This will redirect to Flexera One Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.  
+
+* Go to Flexera One Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.
+
+#### IDP initiated:
+
+* Click on **Test this application** in Azure portal and you should be automatically signed in to the Flexera One for which you set up the SSO. 
+
+You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Flexera One tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Flexera One 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).
+
+## Next steps
+
+Once you configure Flexera One 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).
