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.)

• Contacted support@xlcubed.com to enable the feature

Setup

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

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