Entrace SAML application setup
Introduction
This manual shows you how to set up SSO to Entrace using the SAML protocol. The configuration takes place in HelloID and requires you to send information to Entrace.
Requirements:
HelloID environment
Entrace environment
Create or Import a Certificate
If there is no certificate yet, a certificate must be imported or created. This can be done in the HelloID Administrator Portal under Settings > Certificates. For this tutorial, we will use a self-signed certificate. Learn more about certificates here.
Application Setup
Add the Entrace Application
Create a new application in HelloID by navigating to Applications > Applications. Open the Application Catalog and search for "Entrace". Find the SAML template, and click Add. Learn more about managing applications here.
General tab
On the General tab, fill the default login URL with the Entrace environment SSO URL (replace {customer} with your customer name). Optionally, you may also add a description. Click Next.
Single Sign-on tab
On the Single Sign-On tab, perform the following steps:
For the Issuer field, provide your HelloID domain in the format "{customer}.helloid.com".
Endpoint/ACS URL should be set with the ACS endpoint URL of your Entrace environment in the format "https://{customer}.entrace.nl/simplesaml/module.php/saml/sp/saml2-acs.php/default-sp"
Note: This URL is case sensitive
Sign Assertion is always selected (by default).
Sign Response is always selected (by default).
In the X509 Certificate dropdown, select the certificate that you created or imported previously.
Overwrite Audience is always selected (by default).
As Extra audience enter the endpoint URL of your Entrace environment in the format "https://{customer}.entrace.nl/simplesaml/module.php/saml/sp/saml2-acs.php/default-sp"Note: This URL is case sensitive
Click Next.
Self service tab
On the Self Service tab, choose whether to automatically create a Self Service product, which makes the application requestable. This is optional. Click Next.
Finish tab
On the Finish tab, click Save to add the application to HelloID.
Configuring the Mapping Set
By default, the 'matching identifier' is set to the user's contact email. This is assuming the email address known in HelloID matches the Entrace user's email address.

Application metadata
After saving the Entrace application, click its Edit link on the applications overview. This will bring you to its properties page.
You now have the option to obtain the application metadata.
Dynamic Metadata (URL)
You can simply right-click Download metadata and copy the link address (something along the lines of https://enyoi.helloid.com/metadata/download?ApplicationGUID=e6e741f5-a469-4849-93f7-fe2e259a339f) at the right top of the screen.
Replace the word 'download' with 'index' in the URL to view the metadata. This URL is the Dynamic Metadata URL.
Please provide this dynamic Metadata URL to Entrace.
The configuration of the HelloID application is finished.

To configure the SSO on the Entrace side, they will need the following information:
