Create OrgChart Now test user

To enable Microsoft Entra users to log in to OrgChart Now, they must be set up as a user in OrgChart Now, or Auto-Provisioning must be enabled in the SSO Configuration panel.

If you don't wish to enable auto-provisioning at this time, you can manually add a user to OrgChart Now for SSO testing purposes. To do so, follow the steps enumerated in the Creating a New User section of the Account Settings: Manage Users article.

Test SSO

In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.

SP initiated:

  • Select Test this application, this option redirects to OrgChart Now Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.

  • Go to OrgChart Now Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.

IDP initiated:

  • Select Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the OrgChart Now for which you set up the SSO.

You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you select the OrgChart Now tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the OrgChart Now for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.

Once you configure OrgChart Now you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
