Configuring SAML Authentication

To set up SAML authentication, you will need details from your Identity Provider (IdP).

  • Metadata URL (for example, for Microsoft Entra: https://login.microsoftonline.com/<some_id>/federationmetadata/2007-06/federationmetadata.xml?appid=<some_id>)
  • Metadata File (XML)

Redirect After Logout

Set your IdP to redirect users here after logout:

https://app.outdoo.ai or for Microsoft: https://myapps.microsoft.com

Required Outdoo Details

Outdoo Entity ID:

https://app.outdoo.ai

(Use this exact value. Do not substitute your customer domain.)

You can access your ACS URL here after logging in:

https://api.outdoo.ai/auth/sso/saml/login/<some_id>

X509 Certificate: Outdoo does not provide an X509 certificate. If required, your IdP will generate and provide one.
