Configure and test single sign-on to Azure AD for Jamf Pro
Set up and test Azure AD SSO with Jamf Pro using a test user named B.Simon. For SSO to work properly, you must create a login relationship between the user in Azure AD and the associated user in Jamf Pro.
In this section, you will configure and test Azure AD SSO using Jamf Pro.
- Configure SSO in Azure ADThis will allow your users to use this functionality.
- Create a test Azure AD userTest Azure AD SSO with B.Simon account.
- Assign an Azure AD test userThis allows B.Simon to use SSO to Azure AD.
- Configure SSO in Jamf ProConfigure application-side SSO settings.
- Create a Jamf Pro trial userThere is a B.Simon counterpart in Jamf Pro that links to the user's Azure AD representation.
- Test the SSO configurationVerify that the configuration is valid.

When a user tries to log into Jamf Pro, Jamf Pro gets information about the user from the identity provider and compares it to all Jamf Pro user accounts. If an incoming user account is not found, Jamf Pro tries to match it to a group name.

Test the SSO configuration
In this section, you will test your Azure AD single sign-on setup using the following options.
SP start:
clicktry this appin the Azure portal. This will redirect you to the Jamf Pro login URL where you can start the login process.
Go directly to the Jamf Pro login URL and start the login process from there.
IDP start:
- clicktry this appIn the Azure Portal, you should be automatically logged into the Jamf Pro for which you configured SSO
You can also test applications in any mode using Microsoft My Apps. When you click on the Jamf Pro tile in my app, if it's set to SP mode, you'll be redirected to the app's login page to start the login process, and if it's set to IDP mode, you should be automatically logged in Jamf Pro you set up SSO for.

Once you set up Jamf Pro, you can implement Session Control, which protects your organization's sensitive data from leaks and leaks in real time. Session control extends from conditional access.Learn how to enforce session control for cloud applications with Microsoft Defender.
