Setting up SAML SSO with Azure AD
You can use the Azure portal to enable SSO for an Enterprise application that you added to your Azure AD tenant.
After you configure SSO, your users can sign in by using their Azure AD credentials.
If your users are in Azure AD but cannot use the Azure AD integration instructions to configure AAD to your UiPath® organization, configuring AAD as a SAML-based identity provider may be an option.
This is due to restrictions around giving permissions to read user details and group memberships of all UiPath application users.
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress
or the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/upn
claims to be sent by the SAML identity provider. The http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress
claim is case-sensitive.
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress
claim.
By default, the application in Azure AD is configured to send the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress
claim, with the user's email address as the value for the claim.
If you are switching from or planning to switch to Azure AD directory integration, please note:
-
The value passed in the prioritized claim is used by UiPath as a unique identifier and is used to link any existing local users (using the local user's email address) to this directory user in Azure AD.
-
For a smooth switch between Azure AD and SAML directory integration, it is recommended you pass in both of these claims with the appropriate user values.
Here is an example configuration:
-
Log into the Azure portal using one of the roles listed in the prerequisites.
-
Go to Azure AD, then select Enterprise applications.
The All applications page opens that lists the applications in your Azure AD tenant.
Search for and then select the application that you want to use. For example, UiPath.
Note:To create an application for SSO, follow the steps in this section.
-
From the left sidebar in the Manage section, select Single sign-on to open the SSO editing page.

Select SAML to open the SSO configuration page.
After the application has been configured, users can sign into it using their Azure AD tenant credentials.
-
Under the Basic SAML Configuration section, click Edit.
-
Fill out the Entity ID and Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL fields based on the values provided in the SAML configuration settings in the UiPath portal.

-
Go to Azure AD, then select Enterprise applications.
The All applications page opens that lists the applications in your Azure AD tenant.
