This article explains how to configure Microsoft's Active Directory Federation Services Single-Sign-On (SSO) with the Foxit Admin Console so that users activate our solutions (Foxit PDF Editor, Foxit Sign... etc.) using your organizations SSO.

These instructions may vary depending on your environment. If you have specific settings, you may need to check those with your IdP admins as Foxit only supports SSO as it is written in this article.

Prerequisites:

A. You must have a verified domain in Foxit Admin Console > User ID Management > Directory Setting.

B. A Microsoft Windows Server installed with Microsoft AD FS and the latest operating system updates.

C. The server must be accessible from users' workstations (for example, via HTTPS).

D. Security certificate obtained from the AD FS server.

E. All Active Directory accounts, to be associated with a Foxit Cloud account, must have an email address assigned.

Go to AD FS Management > Service > Endpoints and make sure the name is the same as /FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml.

Copy the Identity provider's Entity ID from entityID.

Copy the ldentity provider SSO URL from Location.
