## authentik configuration
|
|
|
|
To support the integration of Datadog with authentik, you need to create an application/provider pair in authentik.
|
|
|
|
### Create an application and provider in authentik
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Applications** > **Applications** and click **Create with Provider** to create an application and provider pair. (Alternatively you can first create a provider separately, then create the application and connect it with the provider.)
|
|
- **Application**: provide a descriptive name, an optional group for the type of application, the policy engine mode, and optional UI settings.
|
|
- **Choose a Provider type**: select **SAML Provider** as the provider type.
|
|
- **Configure the Provider**: provide a name (or accept the auto-provided name), the authorization flow to use for this provider, and the following required configurations.
|
|
- Set the **ACS URL** to `https://us5.datadoghq.com/account/saml/assertion`.
|
|
- Set the **Issuer** to `https://us5.datadoghq.com/account/saml/metadata.xml`.
|
|
- Set the **Service Provider Binding** to `Post`.
|
|
- Under **Advanced protocol settings**, set **Signing Certificate** to any available certificate.
|
|
- Enable **Sign assertions**.
|
|
- Enable **Sign responses**.
|
|
- Set **NameID Property Mapping** to `authentik default SAML Mapping: Email`.
|
|
- **Configure Bindings** _(optional)_: you can create a [binding](/docs/add-secure-apps/bindings-overview/) (policy, group, or user) to manage the listing and access to applications on a user's **My applications** page.
|
|
|
|
3. Click **Submit** to save the new application and provider.
|
|
|
|
### Download metadata file
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to authentik as an administrator and open the authentik Admin interface.
|
|
2. Navigate to **Applications** > **Providers** and click on the name of the newly created Datadog provider.
|
|
3. Under **Related objects** > **Metadata**, click **Download**. This metadata file will be required in the next section.
|
|
|
|
## Datadog configuration
|
|
|
|
1. Log in to Datadog as an administrator.
|
|
2. Hover over your email address in the bottom left of the sidebar and click **Organization Settings**.
|
|
3. Navigate to **Login Methods**, click **Configure** next to **SAML**, then click **Add SAML**.
|
|
- **Name**: enter a descriptive name (e.g. `authentik`).
|
|
- **IdP Metadata**: click **Choose file** and upload the authentik metadata file downloaded in the previous section.
|
|
- **Identity Provider (IdP) Initiated Login**: Allows login directly from authentik. Toggle as desired.
|
|
4. Click **Save**.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration verification
|
|
|
|
To confirm that authentik is properly configured with Datadog, first log out, then navigate to the Datadog login page and click **Using Single Sign-On?**. Enter your email address and click **Next**. You should be redirected to authentik, and after you authenticate, you will be redirected back to Datadog.
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
When logging in via SP-initiated login, Datadog may send a one-time email verification code. This is normal security behavior.
