To set up Azure as the Identity Provider for Celona Orchestrator (CSO), follow these steps:

Step 1: Add Celona Orchestrator as a Custom Application in Azure

  1. Login to Azure Portal:

  2. Create a New Enterprise Application:

    1. Navigate to Enterprise Applications > New Application > Create Your Own Application.

    2. Provide a name (e.g., "Celona Orchestrator") and click Create.

Step 2: Configure Single Sign-On

  1. Select Single Sign-On Method:

    1. In the new application’s settings, select Single sign-on.

    2. Choose SAML as the SSO method.

  2. Upload SP Metadata from CSO:

    1. Upload the SP Metadata file downloaded from the CSO (Admin Settings > SSO Settings > Service Provider).

Step 3: Configure User Attributes & Claims

Define Attributes in the SAML Token:

  • Ensure all the attributes are configured

Step 4: Assign Users or Groups to the Application

  1. Navigate to the Application:

    • Go to the Users and Groups tab under the application.

  2. Map Group Names in Azure:

    • Use Azure AD groups to define roles. Example:

      • CELONA_Admin → Maps to Admin role in CSO.

      • CELONA_Observer → Maps to Observer role in CSO.

      • CELONA_Installer → Maps to Installer role in CSO.

  3. Assign Access:

Step 5: Configure Group Claims for Role Mapping (Optional)

Enable Group Claims:

  • Navigate to the Attributes & Claims section.

  • Add a new claim for authzRole.

  • Populate this claim based on Azure AD groups.

Step 6: Test and Validate Configuration

  1. Access the SSO Launch URL from CSO:

    • Use: https://<cso-fqdn>/v1/api/ssogw/saml/login/alias/<customer_alias_value>

  2. Login Flow:

    • Ensure redirection to the Azure login page.

    • After successful login, verify that the user is provisioned and assigned the correct CSO role.

To complete the SSO configuration, follow the steps in the SSO Configuration Guide for IT Admins.
