Creating your own identity provider

IDrive® e2 allows you to create your own identity provider and configure it for SSO.

Here are the parameters you will need to implement your own IdP:

Admin of the IDrive® e2 account can enable their users to access e2 by signing in to a central identity provider. To set up SSO with IDrive® e2 , the admin needs to:

  • IDrive® e2 uses SAML 2.0 with the HTTP Redirect binding for IDrive® e2 to IdP and expects the HTTP Post binding for IdP to IDrive® e2.
  • While configuring with SAML, use the two following URLs and save the changes.
    1. Single sign on URL:
      https://api.idrivee2.com/api/sso/samlassert
    2. Audience URL (SP Entity ID):
      https://api.idrivee2.com/api/sso/metadata.xml
  • Your identity provider may ask whether you want to sign the SAML assertion, the SAML response, or both. IDrive® e2 requires the SAML response to be signed.
  • You can choose a signed or unsigned SAML assertion.
