This document describes how to configure Oracle Identity Cloud Service to provide Single Sign-On (SSO) for EduBrite using SAML.

About EduBrite

EduBrite provides a SaaS-based online learning management platform (LMS) that enables businesses and training institutes to deliver end-to-end training solutions to their employees, partners and customers.

After integrating EduBrite with Oracle Identity Cloud Service:

Note: The EduBrite app can be accessed by a user who is assigned to the EduBrite app in Oracle Identity Cloud Service, even if the user does not have an EduBrite account.

Verifying the Integration

Use this section to verify that SSO works when initiated from Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IdP initiated SSO) and EduBrite (SP initiated SSO).

Verifying Identity Provider Initiated SSO from Oracle Identity Cloud Service

  1. Access the Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Profile console using the URL: https://<IDCS-Service-Instance>.identity.oraclecloud.com/ui/v1/myconsole.

  2. Log in using credentials for a user that is assigned to the EduBrite app. Oracle Identity Cloud Service displays a shortcut to EduBrite under My Apps.

  3. Click EduBrite. The EduBrite home page appears.

  4. In the upper-left corner, confirm that the user that is logged in is the same for both EduBrite and Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

    This confirms that SSO that is initiated from Oracle Identity Cloud Service works.

Verifying Service Provider Initiated SSO from EduBrite

  1. Access EduBrite using the URL: http://<Domain_Name>.edubrite.com/, and then click Signin using SSO. You are redirected to the Oracle Identity Cloud Service login page.

  2. Log in using credentials for a user that is assigned to the EduBrite app. The EduBrite home page appears.

  3. In the upper-left corner, confirm that the user that is logged in is the same for both EduBrite and Oracle Identity Cloud Service.

    This confirms that SSO that is initiated from EduBrite works.
