Set Up SSO SAML Login on Testlify

Testlify supports Single Sign-On (SSO) via SAML, letting your team authenticate through your existing identity provider instead of managing a separate password. This guide walks you through enabling SSO, connecting an identity provider, and logging in with SAML.

Before you begin

• You need admin access to your Testlify Workspace Settings.
• Prepare your identity provider (IdP) details: the SSO Login URL and Public Certificate from providers such as Okta, Azure AD, or mock.saml.
• SSO SAML is available on eligible subscription plans. Contact support@testlify.com to confirm your plan includes this feature.

Step 1: Enable SSO SAML login in your workspace

1. Log in to Testlify and navigate to Workspace Settings.
2. Click Enable SSO SAML Login.

Step 2: Add an identity provider

1. Click Add Identity Provider.
2. Enter a unique Team Slug — a short identifier your users will type when signing in with SAML (for example, acme-corp).
3. Enter the SSO Login URL from your identity provider. For example, if you are using mock.saml, paste its login URL here.
4. Paste the Public Certificate from your identity provider. This certificate secures the communication channel between your IdP and Testlify.
5. Click Save to complete the setup.

Step 3: Copy service provider details to your identity provider

After saving, Testlify generates two URLs you must configure in your identity provider's dashboard:

• Service Provider (Consumer Service) URL — the endpoint your IdP calls with user data to authenticate users on Testlify.
• Entity URL — the audience identifier Testlify uses during the authentication process.

Tip: Copy both URLs and configure them in your identity provider's admin console before testing the login flow.

Step 4: Log in using SSO SAML

1. Log out of Testlify and click Sign in with SAML on the login page.
2. Enter your Team Slug and click Continue. You are redirected to your identity provider's login page.
3. On your identity provider's page, enter the Consumer Service URL (your Service Provider URL from Testlify) and provide your credentials.
4. Upon successful authentication, your identity provider sends a POST call to Testlify and you are signed in automatically.

Manage your identity provider

• Enable or disable: Toggle the identity provider between active and inactive from Workspace Settings at any time.
• Edit or delete: Modify the SSO Login URL, Public Certificate, or Team Slug, or remove the identity provider entirely from the same settings page.

FAQs

• What is SSO SAML?
  SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is a protocol that enables single sign-on — users authenticate once with their identity provider and gain access to Testlify without a separate login.

• Who can use SSO SAML on Testlify?
  This feature is available on eligible subscription plans. Contact support@testlify.com to learn more about enabling it for your workspace.

• What if I face issues during setup?
  Double-check that the SSO Login URL and Public Certificate match your identity provider's configuration exactly. If the issue persists, contact our support team for assistance.
