Dear Community,

I am trying to configure SAML2 SSO between Access Manager and GitLab which should be supported since GitLab is able to act as SAML2 SP and AM can act as an SAML2 IdP.

I clicked to edit on IDP and wanted to create new trusted provider under "SAML2.0":

There wan an error saying that the Metadata XML was malformed. I have checked the metadata in various SAML2 verifiers and the XML was not malformed and the metadata was valid.

Workaround for this is to create a new "Connector" in the "Connector studio":

and create new SAML2.0 SSO Connector.

Under "Metadata" window we can select "Generate" method and manually write the EntityID we can get from metadata and Assertion Consumer Service URL.

Once this is finished we add needed Attributes into the attribute set (we are able to edit this later) and configure assertion options.

We return under dashboard and go to applications in order to create a new application and select "Add application from local catalog":

If we have signing certificate in metadata from SP we should upload it here:

After that we select all attributes under "Attributes" tab, define Access and roles needed to access the application and review the System setup and click save.

Upon that our SP is created and all there is left to do is to update all of IDP Servers.

With kind regards,

Sebastian Novak
