On this page we provide the steps to help you configure Single Sign-On (SSO) with an Okta account.
1. To initialize the configuration process, open a support ticket with the BlueDolphin support team and provide the following details:
A logo in .png format, or vector or high-resolution images without any whitespace around it, is recommended.
(makes it easier to distinguish SSO from other types of authentication)
2. To access the SAML app integration wizard, go to Applications > Applications and click Create App Integration.
3. Select SAML 2.0 for the sign-in method and click Next.
4. Type in the name for your new application and click Next.
5. In the Configure SAML view, type in the following values:
For EU tenants:
Single sign-on URL
Audience URI (SP Entity ID)
For US tenants:
Single sign-on URL
Audience URI (SP Entity ID)
Click Next.
6. The format of the metadata URL is the following:
where
trial-3364559 is your Okta account ID and
exk3hd6iknSnhGTuh697 your application ID.
Your Okta account is visible in the browser URL (the important part comes before -admin.okta.com).
Your application ID is visible in the Configure SAML view under <> Preview the SAML Assertion.
After clicking the button, you will see the XML that contains your application ID.
7. In Attribute Statements (optional), add the missing claim with the values below and save changes.
Name: Email
Value: user.email
NOTE: An SSO application should not be linked to the users directly. Instead, create a bookmark application in Okta and link it to the the BlueDolphin URL of your organization https://bluedolphin.app/{companyname}.
