Configuring SAP Cloud for Customer

Configure the Single Sign-On (SSO) to Identity Authentication in the SAP Cloud for Customer system.

Procedure

1. Get the identity provider metadata XML file. To do so:

   1. Use the following URL to access the metadata for the Identity Authentication tenant:

      https://<tenant ID>.accounts.ondemand.com/saml2/metadata.

   2. Save the content of the page locally on your file system as an XML file.

2. Log on to your SAP Cloud for Customer system as an administrator.

3. Choose ADMINISTRATOR > Common Tasks and then choose Configure Single Sign-On.

4. On the CONFIGURE SINGLE SIGN-ON screen, choose the IDENTITY PROVIDER tab.

5. Choose New Identity Provider.

6. Browse and open the metadata XML file that you have downloaded in Step 1. By importing the metadata, the system automatically uploads the required signature certificate and encryption certificate.

   The new identity provider is activated and displayed in the Trusted Identity Provider list.

7. Once you have configured your identity provider, activate SSO in your SAP Cloud for Customer system. To do so, choose Activate Single Sign-On, and then choose OK.

8. To save your settings, choose Save in the upper left-hand corner.
