- Under the SAML Authentication tab, ACS URL and Entity ID will be displayed. These two values must be copied and used in the SAML provider. The parameters required by Zoho Creator Customer for SAML configuration are Login URL, Logout URL and Public Key. These three parameters will be generated by the SAML provider. Copy the values of the three parameters from your SAML provider and paste them in the given fields. The public key can also be saved as a text file and uploaded here. Select RSA or DSA under Algorithm.

Now, if a portal user tries to access the portal by using the Portal URL they will be redirected to the Login URL which has been provided by the SAML provider. The authentication of the portal user will be done by the SAML provider and if successful then the portal user will be logged into the portal.
