This guide requires you to be administrator of your Microsoft Azure account

On Microsoft Azure

  1. Click on Enterprise applications

  2. Click on New application

  3. Click on Create your own application

  4. Enter the application name (e.g: Figures SAML), then click on Create

  5. Click on Set up single sign on

  6. Click on SAML

  7. Edit the Basic SAML Configuration section

    1. Add the following Identifier: https://app.figures.hr

    2. Click on Save

  8. Edit the Attributes & Claims section. Add the following Claims:

    1. Name: nameID - Source Attribute: user.mail

    2. Name: firstName - Source Attribute: user.givenname

    3. Name: lastName - Source Attribute: user.surname

  9. Under SAML Certificates, download the Certificate (Base64). You will require it soon.

  10. Under Set up, copy the Login URL. You will require it soon.

  11. Go to Users and groups and assign relevant people and groups to this application, depending on your needs. In order to test the integration, we recommend that you at least add yourself to start.

On Figures

  1. Go to Figures Settings

  2. Scroll down until you find SAML SSO

  3. Click on the Configuration tab

  4. Enter your SAML Entry Point and Certificate. Those match the settings you've copied from Microsoft before.

    1. Entry Point corresponds to the LoginURL

    2. Certificate corresponds to the Certificate (Base64) you've downloaded. You will need to open this file in a text editor and copy it's content.

  5. Click on Save

  6. Click on Test integration

Once you get back on Figures, you will most likely land on an error page letting you know that we had issues validating your SAML Profile.

To fix this, you need to Map your SAML Attributes.
