Prerequisites

To get started, you need the following items:

  • A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
  • Bynder single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.

Scenario description

In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO in a test environment.

  • Bynder supports Just In Time user provisioning.

To configure the integration of Bynder into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Bynder from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type Bynder in the search box.
  4. Select Bynder from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.

Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.

Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO

    2. Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable Britta Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
  2. Configure Bynder SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
    1. Create Bynder test user - to have a counterpart of Britta Simon in Bynder that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
  3. Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.

Сreate New Bynder Configuration

Configure Bynder SSO

You may configure SSO on Bynder side by following this documentation Configure SAML SSO

Create Bynder test user

In this section, a user called Britta Simon is created in Bynder. Bynder supports just-in-time user provisioning, which is enabled by default. There is no action item for you in this section. If a user doesn't already exist in Bynder, a new one is created after authentication.

Note

If you need to create a user manually, you need to contact the Bynder support team.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, this will redirect to Bynder Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to Bynder Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

IDP initiated:

  • Click on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the Bynder for which you set up the SSO

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Bynder tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign-on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Bynder for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Next steps

Once you configure Bynder you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
