Hi,

We are trying to configure SAML SSO with Azure AD for a customer with Appian cloud. We need the Service Provider Signing Certificate and Service Provider Signing Certificate Password but we are not sure if this information is provided to us by the IDP, if we need to ask Appian for it through a support case or create a self-signed certificate as described here community.appian.com/.../kb-1108-how-to-create-a-self-signed-certificate-for-saml-authentication.

I have reviewed the documentation for SAML configuration docs.appian.com/.../SAML_for_Single_Sign-On.html but I cannot find further information about these two fields.

Thanks in advance

Self signed certs are not approved by amy CA and it can be a security risk...

ON the other hand , are you able to create a SSC valid for the IDP?

I tihnk you should open a ticket to Appian in order to validate the best way to implement it.....
