Configure SAML single sign-on

Use SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) to connect your identity provider (IdP) with CertCentral.

After you configure the SAML connection, CertCentral users can sign in with their SSO credentials. Users access the sign-in page through either a service provider-initiated custom SSO URL provided by DigiCert or an IdP-initiated SSO URL that you provide.

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) allows users to authenticate in CertCentral using credentials from a configured identity provider (IdP). After configuration, users sign in through their IdP rather than with direct CertCentral credentials.

Configure SAML in Settings > Single Sign-On.

Notice

SAML certificate requests and SAML single sign-on are separate features configured independently. SAML single sign-on controls how CertCentral account users authenticate. SAML certificate requests controls how non-CertCentral users order client certificates. See SAML prerequisites before configuring either feature.
