Enable SAML

Before SAML can be used, SAML must be enabled as a supported login mode. The other login types can also be enabled so that if SAML authentication fails, or the User cancels the process, the next configured login method is invoked.

By default, the Web Applications use the same security settings as those configured for the Desktop Client Applications; however, configure the system to use different login modes for each. Select Browser Client or Browser Portal, and then clear Use Same Settings as Desktop Client, and then enable or disable SAML authentication separately for each type of application.

To enable SAML:

1. In the CSM Administrator main window, click the Security category, and then click the Edit security setting task.
2. Click the Desktop Client page.
3. Under Supported Login Modes, select the SAML check box.

   SAML authentication is now enabled and, if configured, is now invoked for Users logging in.

4. Click OK.
