Enabling SSO with Entra ID (Formerly Azure AD)
Steps for IT Teams:
1. Create Application in Azure Active Directory:
Navigate to the Azure Active Directory portal
Go to ‘Enterprise applications’ → ‘New application’ → ‘Create your own application’.
Name the application “SqlDBM”.
Select “Integrate any other application you don’t find in the gallery”.
2. Assign Application to Users:
Assign the app to Azure AD users, ensuring the admin account for your subscription is included.
3. Set up SAML:
In the app settings, go to "Set up single sign-on" and choose "SAML".
Configure the following:
Basic SAML Configuration:
Identifier (Entity ID): https://sqldbm.com/Saml2
Sign on URL: leave blank
Relay state: leave blank
Logout Url: https://sqldbm.com/Account/LogOffSso
User Attributes and Claims:
Change “Unique User Identifier (Name ID)” to user.localuserprincipalname.
Remove "givenname" and "surname" claims.
Change “name” claim to user.displayname.
4. Provide Metadata URL (IMPORTANT):
Send us the App Federation Metadata Url and your organization's principal domain (e.g., something.onmicrosoft.com).
Additional Steps:
Wait for SqlDBM to enable integration on our side.
Login to SqlDBM via Azure Active Directory using the admin account’s principal name. (It ends with yourorg.onmicrosoft.com) and can be found at the top of the user’s profile in the Azure Active Directory portal, just under the user name
Ensure users assigned to SqlDBM in Azure Active Directory can log in via this method.
