Setting Up SSO in Private Cloud or On-Premises Environment

Note: You must have organization-level admin rights to do this.

In a private cloud or on-premises environment, you can set up SSO for internal and external user accounts. If you use Microsoft Entra ID, refer to Configuring SSO for M-Files Hubshare with Microsoft Entra ID in M-Files Customer Support Portal for detailed instructions.

To set up SSO in a private cloud or on-premises environment:

  1. On the navigation bar, click the user icon and select Settings.
  2. In the Administration section, select Single sign-on.
    Result:The Single sign-on page opens.
  3. Select the Internal users or External users tab.
  4. In the selected tab, select Enable.
  5. In Provider settings, enter the information.
    Result:A preview of the SSO login button is shown. The button is shown on the M-Files Hubshare login page of the organization when you save your configuration.
  6. Optional: If you are on the External users tab, the section User settings is shown. To enable M-Files Hubshare to automatically create new external user accounts:
    1. Enable Automatically create new users.
      For this feature to operate correctly, the company administrator must configure these attribute statement parameters in the Identity Provider information:
      • UserIdentifier: Required
      • UserFirstName: Optional
      • UserLastName: Optional
      Note: The UserIdentifier is always required, even if automatic user creation is not enabled.
    2. In Default groups for automatically created users, select the user group that the new external user accounts are automatically added to.
    If this setting is not enabled, users without an M-Files Hubshare account cannot log in with SSO.
  7. In the identity protocol settings (OpenID settings or SAML 2.0 settings), enter the information.
    You can get this information from your SSO provider.
  8. Click Save.
The users can now log in with SSO.
