How it works

When a user navigates to the knowledge base, they will be presented with the option to authenticate to the knowledge base via SSO only. If they are already logged in to the SSO provider, they will automatically be logged in to your knowledge base without any additional actions.

Add the app in OneLogin

  1. Go to Add App and search for SAML Test Connector (IdP w/attr).

  2. Select SAML Test Connector (IdP w/attr) and save the configuration.
