Setting Up Microsoft Single Sign-On (SSO) for Impacter Pathway
Amelia
Last Update a month ago
Microsoft Single Sign-On (SSO) simplifies the login process by allowing students and staff to access multiple applications using a single set of credentials.
If your school district already uses Microsoft SSO, enabling it for Impacter Pathway eliminates the need to remember additional usernames and passwords, reduces login issues, and helps maintain a consistent user experience across platforms.
Steps to Set Up Microsoft SSO:
Access Your Microsoft Azure Portal
Log in to your Azure Active Directory (AAD) account at Azure Portal.
Register Impacter Pathway as an Enterprise Application
Navigate to the Azure Active Directory section.
Select Enterprise Applications from the menu.
Click + New Application and choose Create Your Own Application.
Enter "Impacter Pathway" as the application name and select Integrate any other application you don’t find in the gallery (Non-gallery application). Click Create.
Configure Single Sign-On
In the Impacter Pathway application, navigate to the Single Sign-On tab.
Select SAML as the SSO method.
Download the Metadata XML File provided in Impacter Pathway’s admin settings.
Upload the Metadata XML file into Azure by selecting the Upload metadata file option.
Review the configuration details and save your changes.
Assign Users and Groups
Go to the Users and Groups section within the Impacter Pathway application in Azure.
Click Add User/Group and assign the appropriate users or groups who need access to Impacter Pathway.
Test the Integration
Return to Impacter Pathway and log in using a test account with Microsoft SSO credentials.
Verify that the login works correctly and users can access Impacter Pathway without issues.
