Google SAML SSO feature is a paid feature. If you’re using Infisical Cloud, then it is available under the Pro Tier. If you’re self-hosting Infisical, then you should contact [email protected] to purchase an enterprise license to use it.

1

Prepare the SAML SSO configuration in Infisical

In Infisical, head to your Organization Settings > Authentication > SAML SSO Configuration and select Set up SAML SSO.

Next, note the ACS URL and SP Entity ID to use when configuring the Google SAML application.

2

Create a SAML application in Google

2.1. In your Google Admin console, head to Menu > Apps > Web and mobile apps and create a custom SAML app.

2.2. In the App details tab, give the application a unique name like Infisical.

2.3. In the Google Identity Provider details tab, copy the SSO URL, Entity ID and Certificate.

2.4. Back in Infisical, set SSO URL and Certificate to the corresponding items from step 2.3.

2.5. Back in the Google Admin console, in the Service provider details tab, set the ACS URL and Entity ID to the corresponding items from step 1.

Also, check the Signed response checkbox.

2.6. In the Attribute mapping tab, configure the following map:

  • First name -> firstName
  • Last name -> lastName
  • Primary email -> email

Click Finish.

3

Assign users in Google Workspace to the application

Back in your Google Admin console, head to Menu > Apps > Web and mobile apps > your SAML app and press on User access.

To assign everyone in your organization to the application, click On for everyone or Off for everyone and then click Save.

You can also assign an organizational unit or set of users to an application; you can learn more about that here.

4

Enable SAML SSO in Infisical

Enabling SAML SSO allows members in your organization to log into Infisical via Google Workspace.

5

Enforce SAML SSO in Infisical

Enforcing SAML SSO ensures that members in your organization can only access Infisical by logging into the organization via Google.

To enforce SAML SSO, you’re required to test out the SAML connection by successfully authenticating at least one Google user with Infisical; Once you’ve completed this requirement, you can toggle the Enforce SAML SSO button to enforce SAML SSO.

We recommend ensuring that your account is provisioned the application in Google prior to enforcing SAML SSO to prevent any unintended issues.

If you are only using one organization on your Infisical instance, you can configure a default organization in the Server Admin Console to expedite SAML login.

If you’re configuring SAML SSO on a self-hosted instance of Infisical, make sure to set the AUTH_SECRET and SITE_URL environment variable for it to work:

  • AUTH_SECRET: A secret key used for signing and verifying JWT. This can be a random 32-byte base64 string generated with openssl rand -base64 32.
  • SITE_URL: The absolute URL of your self-hosted instance of Infisical including the protocol (e.g. https://app.infisical.com)
