Single Sign-On (SSO) is a critical requirement in large Enterprises within the SOX compliance scope. Convergent Mediation 9.0 now supports OIDC single sign-on. To enable centralized user management and control, it is now possible to tie SAP Convergent Mediation by DigitalRoute to a centralized identity provider. This enables users to log in using SSO, along with multi-factor authentication flows.

In order to change the standard Convergent Mediation login credentials to company Active Directory credentials for Single-Sign-On I performed the following steps.

  1. Pre-requisite: You need an ID Provider with OICD
    • Get access info from your administrator:
      •  Credentials: client id, client secret
      • Provider id URL (e.g., https://login.microsoftonline.com/digitalroute.com/v2.0/)
  2. Ask your Administrator to update the following SSO configuration:
    • Create Active Directory group for Convergent Mediation SSO that you belong to
      • E.g., “stockholm”. Make sure the name is all in lowercase characters only.
      • Send groups claim with Name (and not ID) in SSO setup. I.e., “sAMAcountName”.
      • Use your Web UI URL (e.g., http://localhost:9001/desktop/) as the redirect URL in the SSO request.
  3. Create your selected Active Directory group in Convergent Mediation via Access Controller (note that only alphanumeric characters, “-“ and “_” are allowed in the group name), however please note that the name should be in all lowercase letters only.
  4. Example group below: “stockholm” (Note: your Active Directory-user must belong to this group.)

  5. Update platform configuration
    • Via command-shell:
           $> mzsh topo open platform
    •  Add the following properties in platform configuration and save:
              auth.oidc.rp.client.id=”<your client id>”
              auth.oidc.rp.client.secret=”<your client secret>”
              auth.oidc.rp.provider.url=”<your provider URL>”
              auth.oidc.rp.claims.username=”name”
              auth.oidc.rp.provider.name=””
              auth.oidc.rp.scopes=””
              auth.oidc.rp.auth.debug=”true”
              auth.oidc.rp.group.syncDisabled=”false”
              auth.oidc.rp.group.default=”<AD-group created in Convergent Mediation>”
              auth.oidc.rp.groupPath=”groups”
    • Picture2-32.png
  6. Restart platform and ui
    $> mzsh restart platform ui
  7. Login via the Web UI
    • http://localhost:9001/desktop/ (note this URL could differ from your installation)
    • Press “Login with SSO” button.
    • Picture3-28.png
    • Now you should be logged in with newly created user based on your AD credentials and AD group created in Convergent Mediation earlier.
    • Picture4-28.png
    • Here’s the automatically generated user with default group selected in the Access Controller (viewed from standard Desktop).
