1. Sign in to your Google Admin console.

   Sign in using an account with super administrator privileges (does not end in @gmail.com).

2. From the Admin console Home page, go to SecuritySet up single sign-on (SSO) for SAML applications.

   You must be signed in as a super administrator for this task.

3. In the Set up single sign-on (SSO) section:
   • Copy and save the SSO URL.
   • Copy and save the Entity ID.

In the next step, you send this information to CyberArk via email. After they respond, you return to the Admin console in Step 3 below to finish SSO configuration.

Send an email to support@cyberark.com asking them to enable SAML 2.0 for your organization. Include the following identity provider (IdP) information copied in Step 1:

• SSO URL 
• Entity ID 
• Attach the IdP certificate you downloaded in Step 1 as an attachment to the email.

Tip: If you don't know your account host name, request that from CyberArk as well, as you'll need it to configure SSO in the Admin console in the next step.
