SAML can be enabled to employ LDAP authentication for P6 Professional deployments using P6 Professional Cloud Connect when P6 EPPM has implemented Web Single Sign-In (WebSSO).
Note: This implementation is not meant to enable SSO for P6 Professional. If you have already authenticated a P6 EPPM application with an identity store, logging in to P6 Professional with SAML will require the entry of your username and password in a configured authentication scheme (for example, form based authentication scheme).
Prior to running the procedures in this section, you must have already enabled federated identity for P6 EPPM applications using the procedures that are described in Configuring Oracle Access Manager for Federated Identity Using SAML 2.0 and have protected your resources for P6 Professional Cloud Connect using Protecting Your Resources and Configuring Protected Resources under an Application Domain. After you have met these conditions, complete the tasks from the following list in the order that they are listed:
- Configuring Oracle HTTP Server WebLogic Proxy Plugin for P6 Professional Cloud Connect
- Configuring the P6 Professional to Recognize SAML Authentication
- Configuring P6 Administrator application for P6 Professional SAML Authentication
