How to setup SSO with Azure Active Directory

---

BlueTally lets you save time and headaches with our Single Sign-on integration with Azure Active Directory, that lets your team members log in and use the app without the need to manually create accounts and new passwords.

1) Log in to your Azure account and click on "Azure Active Directory"

2) Click on "Enterprise applications" in the left menu bar

3) Click on "New application"

4) Click on "Create your own application"

5) Enter a name for the application (such as 'BlueTally SAML SSO'), select the "Integrate any other..." option and click "Create"

6) Scroll down and click on "Single sign-on" in the left menu bar

7) Click on "SAML"

8) Click on "Edit"

9) Click on Add Identifier and enter "https://bluetallyapp.com", and click on Add reply URL and add "https://CUSTOMLINK.bluetallyapp.com/users/auth/saml_CUSTOMLINK/callback" (replace CUSTOMLINK with the custom link you want to use to log into the app with), then click on Save

If your custom link contains a "-", please replace it with a "_" in the last CUSTOMLINK in the Reply URL field, for example: "https://my-custom-link.bluetallyapp.com/users/auth/saml_my_custom_link/callback"

10) Scroll down on the page and click on Edit

11) Click on this

12) Click on the "Source attribute" field, change the value to "user.mail" and click on Save

13) Click on this

14) Change the "Name" value to "first_name", remove the text from the "Namespace" field and click on Save

15) Click on this

16) Change the "Name" value to "last_name", remove the text from the "Namespace" field and click on Save

17) Scroll down and download the "Certificate (Base64)" and copy the "Login URL".

18) Go to your BlueTally account settings and enter the "CUSTOMLINK" you decided on earlier, paste in the "Login URL", upload the "Certificate (Base64)" and decide on which role you'd like new users to have by default.

That's it! Once you upload these details into your account settings, we'll complete the setup on our end - this usually takes less than 1 hour. You'll receive an email when everything is ready.
