If your question is not addressed below, contact us through our support form and we will get back to you shortly.

What is single sign-on?

Single sign-on (SSO) is a one-step user authentication process. If you are an admin of the IDrive® 360 account or a company administrator/account owner, you can allow your users to access IDrive® 360 by signing in to a central identity provider.

With a single sign-on, you can put the identity provider you already trust in charge of authentication, and your users can access IDrive® 360 without another password to manage.

How do I set up single sign-on (SSO) with IDrive® 360?

Admin of an IDrive® 360 account, or a company administrator/account owner can configure SSO by signing in to a central identity provider. To set up SSO, you need to first configure your identity provider and then configure your IDrive® 360 account.

How do I configure my IDrive® 360 account for SSO?

To configure SSO,

  1. Sign in to your IDrive® 360 account.
  2. Click the 'Go To Management Console' button.
  3. In the 'Settings' tab, go to the 'Single Sign-On (SSO)' section.
  4. Enter the 'SSO Name', 'Issuer URL' and the 'SSO Endpoint' URL.
  5. Upload the X.509 certificate received from your IdP.
    Note: X.509 certificate should only be in .pem or .cer format.
  6. Click 'Configure Single Sign-On'.
    Idrive 360

You will receive an email when SSO is enabled.

Is it possible to disable and delete a SSO profile?

Yes, admins can disable and delete a SSO profile from their account.

To disable and delete a SSO profile,

  1. Sign in to your IDrive® 360 account.
  2. Click the 'Go To Management Console' button.
  3. In the 'Settings' tab, go to the 'Single Sign-On (SSO)' section.
  4. Click Idrive 360 corresponding to the SSO profile you wish to disable.
    Idrive 360
  5. Click 'Disable' in the confirmation popup to disable the SSO profile.

Once disabled, you can delete a SSO profile.

  1. In the 'Settings' tab, go to the 'Single Sign-On (SSO)' section.
  2. Click Idrive 360 corresponding to the SSO profile you wish to delete.
  3. In the popup that appears, agree to the terms by clicking the checkbox and click 'Delete' to delete the SSO profile.

Deleting the SSO profile will remove single sign-on for all users linked with this profile and they will have to use their registered email and password for sign in.

Can I configure my own identity provider for SSO?

Yes, you can configure your own identity provider for SSO along with a set of parameters as described below:

  • IDrive® 360 uses SAML 2.0 with the HTTP Redirect binding for IDrive® 360 to IdP and expects the HTTP Post binding for IdP to IDrive® 360.
  • While configuring with SAML, use the following URLs and save the changes.
    1. Single sign on URL:
      https://webapp.idrive360.com/api/sso/process
    2. Audience URL (SP Entity ID):
      https://webapp.idrive360.com/api/sso/metadata
  • Your identity provider may ask if you want to sign the SAML assertion, the SAML response, or both.
