Set up Microsoft SSO with Entra ID

How to configure Microsoft SSO using Entra ID with the Cye platform.

Overview

This article explains how the Cye platform administrators can enable Microsoft SSO using Entra ID via SAML integration. You'll complete the setup in the Cye platform's settings and connect it with your identity provider (IdP). This allows users to log in securely with Microsoft credentials — no separate Cye platform password required.


1. Access the SSO configuration settings

  1. In the Cye platform, go to Settings > Company profile.

  2. Select the SSO checkbox to begin configuration. (Note: This is not enabled by default.)

2. Fill in the SSO fields

You'll see several fields, some pre-filled by the Cye platform and some you need to get from your IdP:

  • Cye platform entity ID
    This is pre-filled. Copy it into the corresponding field in your IdP.

  • Cye platform single sign-on URL
    Also pre-filled. Copy this into your IdP's configuration.

  • IdP entity ID
    Get this from your identity provider (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID) and paste it into the Cye platform.

  • IdP metadata URL
    This is a link to the XML metadata from your IdP. Paste it into the field provided.

3. Save your configuration

  1. Click Save.

  2. In the popup, type Save and click Continue to confirm and complete setup:

4. To disable SSO (if needed)

  1. Go back to Settings > Company profile.

  2. Deselect the SSO checkbox.

  3. Read the informational popup — it explains what will happen.

  4. Click Close to dismiss the popup.

  5. Click Save, type Save, and then click Continue to confirm.

    • Important: This will remove SSO as a login option for your users.


Important notes

  • Only administrators can edit or disable SSO settings.

  • Changes won't take effect until you click Save and confirm.

  • To reset 2FA for another user, admins must enter their Cye platform password. If you don't have one (e.g., you normally log in with SSO), click Forgot your password to set or reset it.


Wrap-up / Next Steps

Once SSO is configured with Entra ID, your users can log in easily and securely using their Microsoft credentials. If you ever need to turn it off, the system walks you through the process step by step.
