Learn about setting up SSO in StorageGRID using OIDC

Contributors netapp-pcarriga

Setting up single sign-on (SSO) in StorageGRID allows StorageGRID (the service provider) and the SSO identity provider to communicate securely about user authentication requests.

You can set up SSO in StorageGRID using OpenID Connect (OIDC) or SAML. Follow these high-level steps to set up SSO in StorageGRID using OIDC or learn about setting up SSO using SAML.

One Configure identity provider

Based on the SSO identity provider you plan to use, you can select either Active Directory or Entra ID for the identity federation LDAP service type.

  • For Active Directory Federation Service (AD FS), you can use the AD FS, Entra ID, Keycloak, Okta, or PingFederate identity provider.

  • For Entra ID, you can only use the Entra ID identity provider.

Use the SSO identity provider's software to configure OIDC for each Admin Node in your grid.

Two Configure SSO

Select the Configure SSO wizard for OIDC. Then, configure SSO with your identity provider and enter sandbox mode to configure and test SSO before enabling it for StorageGRID users.

Three Enable SSO

After confirming that you can use SSO to sign in to each Admin Node, enable SSO for all StorageGRID users.
