To get started, you need the following items:

  • An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
  • Skills Workflow single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
  • Along with Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator can also add or manage applications in Azure AD. For more information, see Azure built-in roles.

    1. Create an Azure AD test user - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
    2. Assign the Azure AD test user - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
  2. Configure Skills Workflow SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create Skills Workflow test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Skills Workflow that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

In this section, you create a user called B.Simon in Skills Workflow. Work with Skills Workflow support team to add the users in the Skills Workflow platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Azure AD single sign-on configuration with following options.

  • Click on Test this application in Azure portal. This will redirect to Skills Workflow Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Skills Workflow Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

  • You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the Skills Workflow tile in the My Apps, this will redirect to Skills Workflow Sign-on URL. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Once you configure Skills Workflow you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Cloud App Security.
