VALT is compatible with SAML 2.0

- Browse to the the Fully qualified domain name and sign in with a local account

- Click on admin

- Click on Users & Groups

- Along the top click on SSO and add SAML config

To configure SSO VALT needs the following information:

  • Certificate in .cer format
  • Identity Provider (IDP)
  • Remote Sign-In URL
  • Remote Sign-Out URL
  • Display Name Attribute
  • Any other custom attributes needed

After SSO is configured browse to Replace with VALT Server Address/saml/metadata.xml to grab the VALT metadata to add to your system

Items to Note:

  • If moving from LDAP to SSO you have to add a custom attribute to map to the username so the usernames will match correctly
  • To migrate current users to SSO the SQL command needs to be run on the database with the correct group ID
    UPDATE users set ldap_sync_id = NULL, saml_config_id = 1, userType = 'local'  where deleted_at is null and group_id =
  • Custom Attributes can be usernames if you want to map to something specific or other information that you want to pull into VALT


User Mapping

User mapping is used to map groups in the customer's system to groups within VALT

Required:

  • Attribute (The item that gets passed back to VALT)
  • User Value (The value of the item that gets passed back to VALT)
