Single sign-on

From Version 9.2.29 you can setup XLCubedWeb to use an SAML 2.0 compliant Identity provider service to handle user authentication.

Requirements

You will need the following:

• Enterprise XLCubedWeb
• A SQL-based Repository in "Role" mode
• An identity provider service that supports SAML 2.0 (for example, Okta, PingIdentity etc.)
• Some identity providers will require that the XLCubedWeb website is running as HTTPS
• Contacted support@xlcubed.com to enable the feature

Setup

Provider setup

You will need to create a new application or service provider. Use the following details where:

servername = Your xlcubedweb server address, for example http://someserver/xlcubedweb, this needs to match what the users would type into a web browser of the Excel publication screen

xlcubedurl = servername/webform/auth.aspx, for example http://someserver/xlcubedweb/webform/auth.aspx
