Set up Google G Suite as the SP and EAA as the IdP
This procedure describes how to set up the G Suite application as a service provider (SP) and EAA as the identity provider (IdP).
Complete the following steps to configure G
Suite as the SP and EAA as the IdP.
How to
-
Access G Suite to set up an admin account.
- G Suite requires you to have admin access to your domain. You can buy a domain from a third-party provider such as GoDaddy.com.
- Ask your EAA account administrator for access to the SaaS application feature.
-
Configure EAA as the IdP for a custom
SaaS application.
-
Configure G Suite as the SP.
-
Go back to the EAA
application you started in Step 2.
-
Verify the EAA
IdP initiation.
- Access the Identity Portal URL and log in using your AD credentials.
- Click the icon for the G Suite application. This will open a new tab and provide users a session without requesting login credentials.
- When the end user logs out from the Identity Portal, the session with the G Suite application is also ended.
-
Verify the G Suite SP initiation.
- Access the Google application using your domain and specific service. For example: https://www.google.com/a/t3akamai.com/ServiceLogin?continue=https://mail.google.com.
- Users are redirected to the EAA login page. Upon successful login, users can access the Google app.
