Instructions to Setup Google SSO

Step 1: Log In and Access Admin Portal

Log in to your Google admin account and access the admin portal.

Step 2: Application Setup

Go to Google Admin page, and navigate to “Web and mobile apps.” Select “Add app” – “Add custom SAML app”

Step 3: Define Application

Enter “Rescale Platform” or a name you would prefer as the application name.

Upload the Rescale logo (optional). The logo can be obtained through the official Rescale website or downloaded here.

Select “Continue”

Step 4: SAML Configuration

Choose one of the options below to proceed; Download IdP metadata or enter the SSO URL and Entity URI from Rescale’s SSO documentation. This information is found on the Rescale Security and SSO administration portal. Select “Continue”

Step 5: Provide the details about Rescale

Fill Service Provider Details from Rescale’s SSO documentation. 

Also fill the Name ID format as “EMAIL,” and the Name ID as Primary email, if you would be setting up the SSO to log in users using email. 

Select “Continue”

Step 6: Set an Attribute 

Set an attribute with a custom name that would be used on the Rescale platform to recognize the attribute. This could be anything, if matches with the SSO setup on Rescale.

Step 7: Finish setup 

Choose who will have access to the application in your organization and select save.

Google as an IdP does not support metadata exchange and does not provide a metadata URL. You would now take the Entity ID, Single Sign-On URL, and the certificate to the Rescale platform and complete the SSO configuration on the Org admin page using SAML manual configuration.
