Creating an IdP configuration

An identity provider (IdP) is essential for user login, API access, and multi-cloud setups. As a tenant administrator, you can create and manage IdP configurations from the Administration activity center.

Configuring an interactive IdP for user login

To enable user login, you can configure an interactive IdP. Depending on your IdP’s supported standard, choose between OpenID Connect (OIDC) or Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML).

Learn how to configure a SAML identity provider for interactive login.

Information note

Each Qlik Cloud tenant can only have one active interactive IdP at a time. Once you deploy your corporate IdP, it will replace the default Qlik Account login flow with the authentication process defined by your chosen IdP.

Supported IdPs include Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), Okta, Auth0, and other providers compliant with OIDC or SAML.

Handling SSO failures

SSO failure handling must be configured through your identity provider. Qlik Cloud does not support configuring a fallback redirect URL.

Configuring multi-cloud setup

For seamless multi-cloud identity management, configure a multi-cloud IdP with your local bearer token. For details on how to set up a multi-cloud deployment, see Distributing apps to Qlik Cloud.
