SAML Authentication setup

Setting up SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) will allow your team members to quickly log in to the team CloudAMQP account using the credentials stored in your organization’s Identity Provider (IdP).

In the CloudAMQP Console under Team Settings and the tab SAML you will find the information needed for setting up and where to upload your IdP metadata. https://customer.cloudamqp.com/team/saml

To enforce specific roles, your IdP must send an extra 84codes.roles attribute in the SAML response. You can see some examples on your SAML page above.

When SAML has been configured, the first login for any new accounts will have to be initiated from your IdP. You will not be able to sign in for the first time using the 'Sign in with SAML' on the CloudAMQP login page. Instead, you need to log in through the application created in your SAML provider.

This guide will provide step-by-step instructions on configuring SAML for the most popular IdPs:
