Checklist

The following checklist aids you in collecting all necessary data to get started with setting up SAML for Symbio.

Is your Infrastructure Ready for Symbio SSO?

If you can answer every question with Yes, your infrastructure is Ready for Symbio SSO.

Question Answer
Symbio and IdP both reachable by browser? ☐ Yes ☐ No
SAML 2.0-compliant IdP available? ☐ Yes ☐ No
SSO HTTP-REDIRECT endpoint supported? ☐ Yes ☐ No
POST to ACS endpoint supported? ☐ Yes ☐ No

Claims Details

Additional Question Answer (needed by P+Z for Cloud setups)

If these answers diverge from the desired claim types, a custom claims mapping needs to be added.
