Enterprise / SSO Login

Modified on Sat, 28 Jun at 1:34 PM

Portpro’s Enterprise login is a SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) based single sign-on (SSO) authentication, allowing applications to authenticate users via their credentials from a trusted identity provider (IdP).  

 

  • It is compatible with any SAML 2.0 protocol based provider (examples: Okta, Auth0, or a corporate SSO)

  • Portpro’s Enterpise login is an IdP-inititated SSO, where the authentication process is initiated directly by the identity provider. The user logs into the IdP directly, often through a corporate portal or identity management system. 

  • Available to both Portpro Carrier and Broker platforms

 

To Enable

  1. Ask support, or your account or customer success manager to enable your account for Enterprise Login. 

  2. Once enabled, go to Settings - Connections - Enterprise Connection Setup 

  3. Within the setup page:

    1. Provide values for Organization Name and Organization Display Name fields. These are user’s choice.

    2. From your IdP provider: 

      1. Enter values for:

        1. Login URL

        2. Logout URL

        3. Email Field Mapping, both Login and Logout URLs

      2. Select the proper Protocol binding method. Both HTTP POST or Redirect binding methods are options

      3. Upload the x509 Signing Certificate which must be in .pem format, which often begins with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and ends with -----END CERTIFICATE-----

  4. Directly in your IdP, create a new Service Provider which will include a metadata Import. Copy the metadata from the Setup page for the import, which should also contain any necessary information during this external setup. 

  5. Once this is successfully completed, you should be able to go login to PortPro pressing the Enterprise login button

    1. Enter the Organization Name in the setup, and Continue. This will take you to your external site for login. Once logged in, the user will be redirected to the PortPro main page as logged in 

 

FAQ

    1. No, users are not prevented from logging in via the other sign in method

  2. Can Drivers be excluded from the Enterprise login feature?
