The Test Configuration must be performed and successful for the set-up to complete.

  • This single sign-on service will now be required going forward.
  • Umbrella will send an email to all dashboard users (not end-users) and a message to all admins in the dashboard to inform them of the mandatory SSO and that passwords are no longer accepted.
  • If the SSO is disabled in the future all users will be emailed a link to reset their passwords as old passwords will not be accepted.
  • Block page bypass users will no longer function once SAML is enabled.
  1. Check both boxes to acknowledge the information and click Save and Notify Users. Both boxes are required to be checked before saving the configuration.
