Configuring Single Sign-On (SSO) with Azure Active Directory

  • Updated

This guide is designed to help you configure Single Sign-On (SSO) for Re-Leased using Azure Active Directory (AD). Single Sign-On is an authentication process that allows users to log in to multiple applications with one set of credentials. This secure and convenient feature simplifies the sign-in process for your team. We will go step-by-step through the setup process. 


Add Re-Leased to Azure Active Directory 

  1. Log in to the Microsoft Azure Portal and navigate to Azure Active Directory > Enterprise Applications blade.

  4. Select the Single sign-on blade and choose the SAML option. 

Basic SAML Configuration
