Integrating your identity provider's SAML server with Cloudera Data Explorer (Hue)

After Data Explorer is configured for SAML authentication and restarted, copy the metadata that is generated by the Data Explorer server and send it to your identity provider so they can configure the SAML server.

Ensure that you have configured Data Explorer for SAML authentication and restarted it before you integrate your identity provider's SAML server with Data Explorer.

  1. Ensure Hue is configured, restarted, and running.
  2. Go to http://<hue_fqdn>:8889/saml2/metadata.
  3. Copy the metadata and send it to your identity provider.
  4. Ensure that your identity provider configures the SAML server with the Hue metadata. It is the same process you used to configure the Hue server with SAML metadata.
