  • 1.  Enable SSO based on SAML for IBM Content Navigator 3.0.10

    Posted Fri March 28, 2025 05:53 AM

    Hello,

    Can I enable SSO using SAML 2.0 for IBM Content Navigator V3.0.10 with Microsoft Azure Entra ID? If so, could you provide the steps to do this in Azure and WAS?

    Thanks,

    Mostafa Abuelkhair

    hello Mostafa,

    IBM Content Navigator is not tested with EntraID SSO. 
    Here's the link to supported SSO methods -> https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/content-navigator/3.0.15?topic=security-support-single-sign-sso [https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/content-navigator/3.0.15?topic=security-support-single-sign-sso].  The table in this topic has other links to technotes provided as guidelines on how to set up various SSO configurations.

    Hello Nanda,

    I succeeded in enabling SAML SSO with MS Entra ID in IBM Content Navigator, and it works perfectly.

    Thanks,

    Hello Mostafa ,

    I have seen your post regarding enabling SAML SSO with MS Entra ID in IBM Content Navigator,

    Even me looking for this, our client requested us to migrate ICN application from PingFed to EntraID. So i am trying to find out the technotes in IBM but didn't find anything.

    Can you share how you enabled this. it will be helpful to me.

    Regards,

    Siva

    You can configure federated single sign-on (SSO) for IBM Content Navigator by using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) with the identity provider (IDP) of your choice.

    This is from IBM Support Statement about SAMO and ICN 3.x from:

    Configuring IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3 and 3.0.x by using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) single sign-on on WebSphere Application Server

    You can configure federated single sign-on (SSO) for IBM Content Navigator by using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) with the identity provider (IDP) of your choice. This technote is a guideline only and the following instructions provide an example of how to configure IBM Content Navigator single sign-on with SAML and IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager as the identity provider.

    Hello Chuck,

    Thank you for your comment. We have successfully configured ICN v3.0.10 with MS ADFS in our lab. However, we have received a new request from the client to implement the SAML 2.0 configuration with MS EntraID. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any IBM articles or TechNotes discussing that identity provider. I'm reaching out here to see if anyone has experience with this scenario and can provide guidance.

    Regards,

    Mostafa
