# Configuring Britive Identity Provider in Oracle Cloud

Now that you have completed the required prerequisites in Oracle Cloud, you can add Britive as the Identity Provider in Oracle Cloud.

This involves two steps:

1. [Downloading SAML Metadata from Britive](https://docs.britive.com/docs/configuring-identity-provider-oracle-cloud#1-downloading-saml-metadata-from-britive)
2. [Adding Britive Identity Provider in Oracle Cloud](/v1/docs/configuring-identity-provider-oracle-cloud#2-adding-britive-identity-provider-in-oracle-cloud-)

### 1. Downloading SAML Metadata from Britive

Perform the following steps to download the SAML metadata from Britive:

Note:

You need to have Britive administrator privileges to download SAML metadata.

  

1. Login to the Britive application with administrator privileges.
2. Click **Admin > Security**.
3. Select the **SAML Configurations** tab.
4. Click **Download SAML Metadata**.

This downloads the SAML metadata needed to configure the identity provider in Oracle, as an XML file, to your computer.

### 2. Adding Britive Identity Provider in Oracle Cloud

Perform the following steps to add Britive as an identity provider in the Oracle Cloud:

1. Login to Oracle Cloud Console with administrator privileges.
2. Click **Identity & Security** from the navigation menu.
3. Select **Federation** from the **Identity** section.
4. Click **Add Identity Provider**. You can add only up to three identity providers in an Oracle tenant application.
5. Enter the following in the **Add Identity Provider**window:
  1. **Name**: Enter a name for the identity provider.
  2. **Description**: Enter a description for the Identity Provider.
  3. **Type**: Choose the Type as **SAML 2.0 Compliant Identity Provider**.
  4. **Upload the FederationMetadata.xml document from your SAML 2.0 complaint identity provider**: In this step, upload the SAML metadata downloaded from Britive.
6. Click **Continue**.
7. The **Add Identity Provider**window displays another pop-up window where you can map the groups defined in Britive to the groups defined in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). In this step, select the following groups:
  - Identity Provider Group
  - OCI Group

Note

This is an optional step- you can skip this step using the cross mark next to the **OCI Group** field.
8. Click **Add Provider**. The Britive Identity Provider is added to the Oracle Cloud.

#### Adding Group Mappings

Once the Britive Identity Provider is added to OCI, you need to add group mappings to it.

Here you map the groups defined in Britive OCI tenant application to the groups defined in OCI. The group mapping is a required step for successfully checking out the profiles in Britive. If the group mappings are not added, it results in an error while checking out the user profiles in Britive that correspond to the groups in OCI.

Perform the following steps to add group mappings in OCI:

1. Click **Identity & Security** from the navigation menu.
2. Select **Federation** from the **Identity** section.
3. Select the Britive Identity Provider in OCI.
4. Scroll down to **Group Mappings** in the Federation details page.
5. Select **Add Mappings**.
6. Map the OCI Group with the same Britive Identity Provider group.
7. After mapping the groups, select **Add Mappings**. The OCI group and the corresponding Britive Identity Provider group are mapped.

#### Possible Error Message

If you add more than three Identity Providers in the Oracle Cloud tenant application, an error is displayed while adding the next Identity Provider.
