Just-in-time provisioning
Just-in-time (JIT) provisioning creates a Hosted Graphite account for users during their first SSO attempt, so you don't have to do it manually for each user. Hosted Graphite automatically enables JIT while configuring SAML. But if you prefer to create a user account manually, you need to contact the Hosted Graphite support team at
support@hostedgraphite.comTo enable SAML SSO for your Hosted Graphite account, contact the Hosted Graphite support at
support@hostedgraphite.com and then follow the below steps:
1. Sign in to Hosted Graphite as an administrator.
2. Click Access in the left-side menu and then select SAML Setup.
3. In the Entity or User ID field, paste the previously copied Issuer.
4. In the SSO Log-in URL field, paste the previously copied Sign-in URL.
5. Select the Default User Role for new user.
6. In the X.509 Certificate field, open the already downloaded file and paste the X.509 certificate.
7. Click Save.
