About JumpCloud SAML Integration
JumpCloud SAML integration in Iru Endpoint lets you set up SAML-based SSO integration with JumpCloud for users accessing Iru Endpoint through their JumpCloud credentials.How It Works
When users attempt to access Iru Endpoint, they’re redirected to JumpCloud for authentication. After successful authentication, JumpCloud sends a SAML assertion back to Iru Endpoint, which validates the user’s identity and grants access. SSO can be used for Iru Endpoint Web App sign-in and for Require Authentication with Automated Device Enrollment.- Iru Web App Configuration

Allow for Tenant Authentication
Once you have configured the SAML connection in Iru Endpoint and your identity provider, you can allow its use for tenant authentication. For step-by-step instructions, please refer to the Allowing Tenant Authentication and Managing Connections section in our Single Sign-on support article.Limit Authentication to Domain
When configuring the SAML connection, you can optionally limit authentication to one or more domains. This can be useful when the SSO connection could authenticate to multiple domains. You can limit the authentication to your Iru tenant to a subset of the available domains.Enforcing Single Sign-On
Once you have configured at least one Single Sign-on connection, you can disable Passkey, Google Social, and Microsoft Social connections. Disabling these connections will disable the ability for Iru Endpoint administrators in your tenant to authenticate via those methods. Please refer to our Single Sign-on support article for step-by-step instructions.Testing the Integration
