RapidIdentity Community SAML Relying Party Configuration

Google supports a SAML-based Single Sign-On service for its web-based application to configure your Identity Provider (IdP) server connection. In the information provided in the link above, the third party identity provider is Identity Automation through RapidIdentity Federation.

The RapidIdentity Community provides preconfigured SAML Relying Parties to supported web-based applications to simplify the IdP server connection. Importing from the Community preconfigures required relying party data for the IdP.

Follow these steps to configure a SAML Relying Party authentication configuration using the Community.

Note

Third party SAML Relying Parties may update their setup sequence without notification, therefore, the steps below may vary slightly.

  1. From the RapidIdentity Configuration Module, select Identity Providers from the Security menu.

    1. The Community contains basic configuration for commonly used SAML Relying Parties. Before manually adding a new SAML Relying Party, search the Community for the entry. The Community will be updated on an ongoing basis with new SAML Relying Parties.

    Tip

    The Community provides some general information about the available pre-configured SAML Relying Parties. Community entries can be created by individual users or by RapidIdentity. Click Federation Partners in the path "Federation Partners>Community>SAML Relying Parties" to return to the main Federation Partners page.
