Before You Begin
Introduction
This document describes how to configure Oracle Identity Cloud Service to provide Single Sign-On (SSO) for Adaptive Insights using SAML.
About Adaptive Insights
Adaptive Insights offers a combined Business Intelligence (BI) and Corporate Performance Management (CPM) suite which is designed from the “cloud up” approach. The App offers designing, consolidation, analytics and reporting features which are capable yet instinctive for a wide range of business clients.
After integrating Adaptive Insights with Oracle Identity Cloud Service:
- Users can access Adaptive Insights using their Oracle Identity Cloud Service login credentials.
- Users can start Adaptive Insights using the Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Apps console.
- Admins can assign and revoke user access to the Adaptive Insights app using the Oracle Identity Cloud Service administration console.
What Do You Need?
- An Oracle Identity Cloud Service account with authorization rights to manage apps and users (Identity Domain Administrator or Application Administrator).
- An Adaptive Insights account with authorization rights to configure federated authentication.
- Make sure that the email ID of each user in Adaptive Insights matches the primary email ID of the Oracle Identity Cloud Service account.

Verifying the Integration
Use this section to verify that SSO works when initiated from Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IdP Initiated SSO).
Verifying Identity Provider Initiated SSO from Oracle Identity Cloud Service
Access the Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Profile console using the URL:
https://<IDCS-Service-Instance>.identity.oraclecloud.com/ui/v1/myconsole
.Log in using credentials for a user that is assigned to the Adaptive Insights app. Oracle Identity Cloud Service displays a shortcut to Adaptive Insights under My Apps.
Click Adaptive Insights. The Adaptive Insights home page appears.
Confirm that the user that is logged in is the same for both Adaptive Insights and Oracle Identity Cloud Service.
This confirms that SSO that is initiated from Oracle Identity Cloud Service works.
Troubleshooting
Use this section to locate solutions to common integration issues.
Known Issues
Adaptive Insights displays the message, "User with given credentials not found."
Cause: The email attribute sent by Oracle Identity Cloud Service during SSO doesn't match any existing user in Adaptive Insights.
Solution: Ensure that the user that you assign to the Adaptive Insights app has an account in both Oracle Identity Cloud Service and Adaptive Insights with the same email address.
