Microsoft Entra ID

To configure SSO with Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), you can use the Postman app in Microsoft Entra ID. You must be an administrator in both Microsoft Entra ID and Postman to configure SSO for your team.

Configure SSO in Postman

Before configuring a SAML application in Microsoft Entra ID, you must configure SSO in Postman. When choosing the Authentication type, select SAML 2.0. Enter a name in the Authentication name text box, then click Continue.

Configure SSO with Microsoft Entra ID

To configure your SAML application, do the following:

1. Open your Microsoft Entra ID management portal in a new tab.

2. Go to Enterprise applications and click + New application.

3. Search for “Postman” and select the Postman app from the results, then click Create.

4. Click Set up single sign on > SAML.

5. Take the Entity ID, Login URL, and ACS URL from Postman and add them to your SAML configuration in Microsoft Entra ID.

6. In Postman, click Generate relay state and add the generated value to your SAML configuration in Microsoft Entra ID.

   

7. Under Attributes & Claims in Microsoft Entra ID, select Edit > Add new claim. Map the Unique User Identifier (Name ID) to the user.mail value.

   

8. Download the Federation Metadata XML file in Microsoft Entra ID under SAML Signing Certificate.

   

9. In Postman, upload the Federation Metadata XML file under Identity Provider Metadata File. Or, you can enter the Identity Provider SSO URL, Identity Provider Issuer, and X.509 Certificate individually under Identity Provider Details.

10. Click Save Authentication in Postman.

Test your SAML configuration

You can test your SAML configuration by creating a test user in Microsoft Entra ID and assigning them the Postman app. If you’ve chosen to automatically add new users when configuring SAML, you can sign in Postman with the test user’s credentials to confirm the process works as expected.

If you haven’t chosen to automatically add new users, you can manually invite the test user to your Postman team. Then, sign in to Postman with the test user’s credentials.
