Azure AD SAML SSO
In this section, we will show you how to set up your own custom SAML application for Azure AD SAML.
Create Application
From your Azure Admin console, click Enterprise applications from the left navigation menu.
If your application is already created, choose it from the list and move to the section Configure Application
If you haven't created a SAML application, click New application from the top to create a new application.
From the next screen, click Create your own application. Give your application a Name and click Create.
Configure Application
Select Single Sign On from the Manage section of your app and then SAML.
Click Edit on the Basic SAML Configuration section.
Enter the following values in the Basic SAML Configuration section on the next screen:

Replace the values with the ones you have received from SAML Jackson.
Click Save to save your changes.
