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
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:

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.
