Integrate with ClassLink SSO (SAML)

Users with the Manage District Settings user permission can set up single sign-on with ClassLink. This integration creates user accounts as users log in for the first time.

This is a three-step process:

1. In ClassLink, add a new SAML application.
2. Enable domain-wide delegation to the new service account.
3. Add Facilities Schedules data to ClassLink.

Step 1: In ClassLink, add a new SAML application

A few things to do while setting up the SAML application in the ClassLink SAML Console:

• Fields are case sensitive.
• Copy the existing template.
• Copy the IdP Metadata URL for Facilities Schedules.

Step 2: Enable domain-wide delegation to the new service account

1. In Facilities Schedules, select Admin > Single Sign On > SAML Configuration. The SAML Integration Admin page appears.

   

2. Next to ClassLink, click . A pop-up appears.

   

3. Do the following:
   1. Under Issuer, enter the IdP Metadata URL from ClassLink.
   2. Enter the Login Link, if desired.

   3. Under Certificate, enter the IdP Certificate.

      Note: You download this certificate from ClassLink.

   4. Click Generate Metadata XML file, and then copy the information.
4. Click Save.

Step 3: Add Facilities Schedules data to ClassLink

To complete the connection, go back to ClassLink and do the following:

1. Paste the information from the Generate Metadata XML file to the ClassLink METADATA field.

   Note: Before pasting the file information, delete "Change Me" in the METADATA field.

2. Add the Schedules app to your ClassLink launchpad.
