Use Case

A company’s applications are protected by Symantec Siteminder where SiteMinder acts as the Identity Provider (IdP).  A partnership is configured in Siteminder.

The Siteminder solution needs to move to Okta CIAM Solution. A SAML 2.0 application integration is created in Okta. Let’s look at the configuration steps.

Configuration

Example:

https://<company’s org>.okta.com

2. Go to Applications

After login:

Click Applications>> Applications

3. Create a new SAML2 Application

Click App Integration

Select SAML 2.0 

Click Next

4. Create SAML 2.0 Application

This application will represent the Local Entity SAML2 IDP in Siteminder.

Configure the new SAML 2.0 application based on the SiteMinder Partnership  and EntityID configuration.

Single Sign on URL– Typically the Remote Assertion Consumer Service(ACS) URL from Siteminder Partnership
