Federated security with SAML

The following diagram describes the scenario for claims-based authentication where TotalAgility Azure uses federated security to authenticate with the SAML cloud Identity Provider OneLogin.

Federated security with SAML

One

The Client accesses TotalAgility.

Two

The Client selects an identity provider (IdP) such as OneLogin.

Three

The IdP authenticates the Client, then returns the SAML IdP token for the selected identity.

Four

The IdP submits the IdP token to TotalAgility via the Client.

The SAML token is passed to TotalAgility in an HTTP form post from the client browser/device.

Five

TotalAgility validates the IdP token and extracts the claims from the token.
