About JumpCloud SAML Integration
JumpCloud SAML integration in Iru Endpoint allows you to set up SAML-based SSO integration with JumpCloud, providing secure authentication 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 to the platform.Setting Up the SAML Connection
