  4. At the top left, click Test SAML login

    Replicon should open in a separate tab. If it doesn’t, use the information in the resulting SAML error messages to update your IdP and SP settings as needed, then retest SAML login.

SP-initiated

  1. Close all browser windows.
  2. Open  https://www.replicon.com and click Login.
  3. Enter your company name as registered with Replicon, User Name as your Google user’s email ID, and any dummy password. You should be redirected to the Google sign in page.
  4. Enter your username and password.

After your credentials are authenticated, you are redirected back to Replicon.

If the user account authenticated by Google IdP does not already exist in Replicon, you see an error. See step 2 to manually create a new user in Replicon before verifying SSO.
