      Introduction

      This article provides a detailed guide on how to configure JumpCloud as an identity provider.

      By leveraging the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol, Harmony SASE can authenticate users through JumpCloud, ensuring a secure and efficient login process.

      Steps

      1. Open the JumpCloud Administrator Console.
      2. Select SSO in the main navigation panel.
      3. Click Add New Application in the upper left.
      4. Search for "Harmony SASE" in the search bar at the bottom of the page, and click Configure.
      5. Choose a Display Label (Usually: Harmony SASE) and click the SSO tab.
      6. In the Single Sign-On configuration section, fill in the following information. Replace YOUR_WORKSPACE with your Harmony SASE workspace name (see attached example).
      1. Make sure to leave the rest of the fields with the default values:

      3. Click Activate.
      4. Click the newly created Application
        10. Click the drop-down menu next to IDP Certificate Valid, then download the certificate.

      2. Select + Add Provider.
      3. Choose SAML 2.0 Identity Providers.
      4. Sign-In URL: Usually, this will be https://sso.jumpcloud.com/saml2/perimeter81, unless you selected another IDP URL in the previous section of the guide.
      5. Add your organization domain.
      6. Paste or upload the certificate from JumpCloud.
      7. Select Done.

      Recommendations

      • Always replace placeholders like YOUR_WORKSPACE with the appropriate values during the setup.
      • Ensure that the correct attributes and URLs are set in JumpCloud for accurate user authentication and authorization in Harmony SASE.
      • Periodically review your JumpCloud configuration settings to ensure they align with any updates or changes made within the Harmony SASE platform
