Set up SSO with Endor Labs

Set up SAML or OIDC single sign on for Endor Labs with in your organization.

Single Sign-On (SSO) provides a seamless sign-in by enabling users to access external applications and services without re-entering the credentials. Endor Labs supports SAML or OIDC-based identity providers.

SAML is an XML-based protocol used for exchanging authentication and authorization data between applications.

OpenID Connect (OIDC) is an identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 framework that allows applications to verify the identity and claims of users.

Using Endor Labs, you can integrate using an Identity Provider (IdP) that supports SAML or OIDC, such as Okta, Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), Azure Active Directory (AD), Google, or OneLogin.

To integrate an SSO-based identity provider with Endor Labs:

Keep Service Provider (Endor Labs) details handy

To configure Endor Labs as a SAML 2.0 app, you must have the following service provider details:

  • Single sign-on URL: This is the API endpoint of the application, where your identity provider redirects the user after successful authentication. You have to enter https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/auth/saml-callback?tenant=yourtenant Replace yourtenant with your actual tenant name.
  • Audience URI: This is a globally unique name for the service provider. You have to enter https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/auth/sso

To configure Endor Labs as an OIDC app, you must have the following service provider details:

  • Sign-in redirect URIs: This is the API endpoint of the application, where your identity provider redirects the user after successful authentication. You have to enter: https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/auth/oidc/callback
  • Sign-out redirect URIs: This is the API endpoint of the application, where your identity provider redirects the user after successful logout. You have to enter: https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/auth/oidc/logout

1 - Set up Okta for SSO using SAML

Learn how to setup Okta as a custom external identity provider for SSO with Endor Labs

Endor Labs integrates with Okta to use SSO through either Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol.

With the Endor Labs-Okta SAML integration, Endor Labs acts as the Service Provider (SP), and Okta acts as the Identity Provider (IdP). When users sign in to Endor Labs using the SAML authentication method, the IdP (Okta) sends a SAML assertion to the browser that is passed to the SP (Endor Labs). This enables Okta to establish a secure connection with the browser and then authenticate the users to sign in to Endor Labs.

The following high level steps allow you to successfully configure Okta for SSO through SAML:

Create and configure a SAML application in Okta

In Okta, configure the Endor Labs application as a SAML 2.0 application and generate a single sign-on URL and certificate.
