Read this when: you (or your IT team) need to set up the Edrolo SAML application
Pick your IdP
Edrolo supports SAML 2.0. We have step-by-step guides for the 3 IdPs as below:
| Your IdP | Guide |
|---|---|
| Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) | 👉 Set up SSO in Microsoft Entra ID |
| Google Workspace | 👉 Set up SSO in Google Workspace |
| Okta | 👉 Set up SSO in Okta |
Using a different IdP? Use the values in the next section and follow your IdP's general SAML 2.0 setup procedure.
The Edrolo Service Provider values: Paste them into your IdP when it asks for Service Provider details.
| Field name in your IdP | Value |
|---|---|
| Identifier / Entity ID / Audience URI | https://edrolo.com.au |
| Reply URL / ACS URL | https://app.edrolo.com/complete/saml/ |
| NameID format | EmailAddress |
| NameID value | The user's primary school email |
What you'll send back to Edrolo
Each per-IdP guide ends with the same four values to paste into Admin Hub:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Entity ID / Issuer | Your IdP's unique identifier |
| SSO Sign-on URL | Endpoint Edrolo redirects users to |
| X.509 Certificate | PEM format with BEGIN/END lines and line breaks preserved |
Go Live and Test
Once you have saved your settings, toggle the SSO setting to Enabled and test immediately:
- Test Login: Try logging in with a test student/staff account in a new Incognito/Private window.
- Verify Flow: Confirm the flow redirects to your IdP and back to Edrolo successfully.
-
Emergency Revert: If the login fails, note the specific error code and turn SSO OFF immediately. This ensures your users can still access Edrolo via their standard passwords while we troubleshoot the issue.
