Configuring Your Organisation's Okta SSO with Glider

Follow these steps to integrate your organization's Okta Single Sign-On (SSO) with the Glider platform:

1. Sign in to Okta

   • Log in as an administrator

2. Navigate to Add Application

   • Go to Admin Dashboard > Applications > Add Application.

3. Create a New App

   • Click Create New App.
   • Select SAML 2.0 as the Sign-On method.
   

4. Configure General Settings

   • Enter the application name and (optionally) an application logo.
   • It is recommended to display the application icon to users, including in the Okta Mobile app.
   • If you would like to use a Glider logo, you can download it from this link.

   

5. Enter SAML Settings

   • Single sign-on URL:
     • Production: [https://sso.ubiquityplatform.com/saml/login_check]
     • Staging: [https://sso-uat.gliderpay.com/saml/login_check]
   • Audience URL:
     • Production: [https://sso.ubiquityplatform.com/saml/metadata/{randomID}]
     • Staging: [https://sso-uat.gliderpay.com/saml/metadata/{randomID}]
   • The 'randomID' will be provided by Glider to your IT support representative.
   • Name ID format: EmailAddress
   • Application username: Okta username

6. Set Attribute Statements
   Define the attribute statements to map attributes between Okta and Glider. The firstname and lastname attributes are required.

   

7. Complete App Setup

   • Click Next. Set Okta support parameters for the application. Recommended settings:
     1. I’m an Okta customer adding an internal app
     2. This is an internal app that we have created

8. Finalise the Setup

   • Click Finish. On the next screen, go to the Sign On tab and collect the Identity Provider Metadata URL.
   • Example: [https://mycompany.okta.com/app/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/sso/saml/metadata]

   

9. View Setup Instructions

   • Click on View Setup Instructions and note the Identity Provider Issuer. The Glider team will need this information to configure SAML on Glider.

   

10. Create a Glider Test User

    • Create a new Okta user account for Glider and assign the Glider app to this user.
    • The Glider team will use these credentials to verify the correct SAML configuration. You may remove this user once the setup process is complete.

11. Send Information to Glider

    • Securely provide your Glider representative with the following information collected in steps 8, 9, and 10:
      • Identity Provider Metadata URL
      • Identity Provider Issuer
      • Glider test user credentials
