Identity provider integration

Learn more about what an identity provider (IdP) is, the advantages and the requirements for integrating the IdP with the Digibee Integration Platform.

What is an identity Provider?

An identity provider (IdP) is a service for storing and managing digital identities. Once integrated with the Digibee Integration Platform, it enables the exchange of authentication and authorization information so that the access manager can centrally organize and control access for its users.
Here are some examples of IdPs:
  • Active Directory (AD)
  • Azure AD Native
  • G Suite
  • PingFederateSharePoint

What happens when the IdP is integrated with the Digibee Integration Platform

Once your identity provider is integrated with the Digibee Integration Platform, it will be possible to access the following functionalities:
  • Single Sign-On: a single sign-on that eliminates the need to manage multiple password stores;
  • Integrated authentication: enables verification of platform access by the IdP itself, centralizes information and facilitates access management, and can be configured at once for one or more realms of the same customer;
  • Integrated authorization: enables management of integrated identity provider groups with access groups on the Digibee Integration Platform. This allows controlling who has access to the services provided by the Digibee integrated group;

What are the requirements for integrating an identity provider with the Digibee Integration Platform

Ensure that the identity provider supports the SAML 2.0 protocol before integrating it with Digibee.
