Symptom

  • You configured your custom SAML Identity Provider according to the product's documentation in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC).
  • You want to deploy the application directly in your SAML IdP "launchpad" (IdP initiated).
  • Service Provided initiate works as expected -- You connect to SAP Analytics Cloud and are redirected correctly to your SAML Identity Provider.

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud
  • Custom SAML 2.0 Identity Provider

Resolution

  • IdP-initiated SSO is supported for SAP Analytics Cloud systems that use a legacy custom IdP configuration. However, it is not supported for custom corporate IdPs configured through the bundled SAP Cloud Identity Services - Identity Authentication service (IAS) IdP.

  • In the legacy scenario -- You can also configure SAP Analytics Cloud logoff behavior to either log users out of both SAP Analytics Cloud and the IdP, or log them out of SAP Analytics Cloud only while keeping them signed in to the IdP.
