How to configure single sign-on for Velpic

ADSelfService Plus supports Active Directory (AD)-based single sign-on (SSO) for Velpic logins and many other SAML-enabled applications. When Velpic SAML SSO is enabled, users only have to log in to ADSelfService Plus, the identity provider, once. After logging in, users can securely access their Velpic account without having to enter their usernames and passwords again.

ADSelfService Plus supports both identity provider (IdP) and service provider (SP)-initiated SSO for Velpic logins.

IdP-initiated Velpic SSO: Users need to log in to the ADSelfService Plus user portal first, and then click Velpic in the Applications tab to access Velpic.

SP-initiated Velpic SSO: Users can access their Velpic domain via a URL or bookmark. They will automatically be redirected to the ADSelfService Plus portal for login. Once they've logged in, they'll be automatically redirected and logged in to the Velpic portal.
