Tutorial: Azure Active Directory integration with Workgrid
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Workgrid with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). When you integrate Workgrid with Azure AD, you can:
- Control in Azure AD who has access to Workgrid.
- Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Workgrid with their Azure AD accounts.
- Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.
Prerequisites
To configure Azure AD integration with Workgrid, you need the following items:
- An Azure AD subscription. If you don't have an Azure AD environment, you can get a free account.
- Workgrid single sign-on enabled subscription.
Scenario description
In this tutorial, you configure and test Azure AD single sign-on in a test environment.
- Workgrid supports SP initiated SSO.
- Workgrid supports Just In Time user provisioning.
- Workgrid supports Automated user provisioning.
Add Workgrid from the gallery
To configure the integration of Workgrid into Azure AD, you need to add Workgrid from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
- Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
- On the left navigation pane, select the Azure Active Directory service.
- Navigate to Enterprise Applications and then select All Applications.
- To add new application, select New application.
- In the Add from the gallery section, type Workgrid in the search box.
- Select Workgrid from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
Configure and test Azure AD SSO for Workgrid
Configure and test Azure AD SSO with Workgrid using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between an Azure AD user and the related user in Workgrid.
To configure and test Azure AD SSO with Workgrid, perform the following steps:
- Configure Azure AD SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
- Create an Azure AD test user - to test Azure AD single sign-on with B.Simon.
- Assign the Azure AD test user - to enable B.Simon to use Azure AD single sign-on.
- Configure Workgrid SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
- Create Workgrid test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Workgrid that is linked to the Azure AD representation of user.
- Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.
Configure Azure AD SSO
Follow these steps to enable Azure AD SSO in the Azure portal.
In the Azure portal, on the Workgrid application integration page, find the Manage section and select single sign-on.
On the Select a single sign-on method page, select SAML.
On the Set up single sign-on with SAML page, click the pencil icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.

On the Basic SAML Configuration section, perform the following steps:
a. In the Sign on URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
https://<COMPANYCODE>.workgrid.com/consoleb. In the Identifier (Entity ID) text box, type a value using the following pattern:
urn:amazon:cognito:sp:us-east-1_<poolid>Note
These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Sign on URL and Identifier. Your Sign On URL is the same URL you use to sign in to the Workgrid console. You can find the Entity ID in the Security Section of your Workgrid console.
Workgrid application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format. Configure the following claims for this application. You can manage the values of these attributes from the User Attributes section on application integration page. On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, click Edit button to open User Attributes dialog.

On the Set-up Single Sign-On with SAML page, in the SAML Signing Certificate section, click Download to download the Federation Metadata XML from the given options as per your requirement and save it on your computer.

On the Set-up Workgrid section, copy the appropriate URL(s) as per your requirement.

Create an Azure AD test user
In this section, you'll create a test user in the Azure portal called B.Simon.
- From the left pane in the Azure portal, select Azure Active Directory, select Users, and then select All users.
- Select New user at the top of the screen.
- In the User properties, follow these steps:
- In the Name field, enter
B.Simon. - In the User name field, enter the username@companydomain.extension. For example,
B.Simon@contoso.com. - Select the Show password check box, and then write down the value that's displayed in the Password box.
- Click Create.
- In the Name field, enter
Assign the Azure AD test user
In this section, you'll enable B.Simon to use Azure single sign-on by granting access to Workgrid.
- In the Azure portal, select Enterprise Applications, and then select All applications.
- In the applications list, select Workgrid.
- In the app's overview page, find the Manage section and select Users and groups.
- Select Add user, then select Users and groups in the Add Assignment dialog.
- In the Users and groups dialog, select B.Simon from the Users list, then click the Select button at the bottom of the screen.
- If you're expecting any role value in the SAML assertion, in the Select Role dialog, select the appropriate role for the user from the list and then click the Select button at the bottom of the screen.
- In the Add Assignment dialog, click the Assign button.
Configure Workgrid SSO
To configure single sign-on on Workgrid side, you need to add the downloaded Federation Metadata XML and appropriate copied URLs from Azure portal to your Workgrid console in the Security section.

Note
You will need to use the full schema URI for the Email, Name and Family Name claims when mapping the attributes in Workgrid:

Create Workgrid test user
In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Workgrid. Workgrid supports just-in-time provisioning, which is enabled by default. There is no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in Workgrid, a new one is created when you attempt to access Workgrid.
Workgrid also supports automatic user provisioning, you can find more details here on how to configure automatic user provisioning.
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 Workgrid Sign-on URL where you can initiate the login flow.
Go to Workgrid Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.
You can use Microsoft My Apps. When you click the Workgrid tile in the My Apps, this will redirect to Workgrid Sign-on URL. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
Next steps
Once you configure Workgrid 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 Defender for Cloud Apps.
