CampusGroups supports two Single Sign On methods: CAS and SAML.
All SSO methods will match the provided user identifier against the email and netid values in user profiles.
In addition, the SAML integration can automatically provision new users as they first sign in if necessary using Just In Time Provisioning
For CAS integrations
You will need to provide us with the CAS base url to use (https://domain.edu/idp/profile/cas/ for instance)
For the SAML integration (which can be used with most standard identity providers, including Shibboleth, ADFS, Azure AD, etc)
CampusGroups SAML Information
Metadata URL: https://www.campusgroups.com/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata
Entity ID: https://www.campusgroups.com/shibboleth
Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL: https://www.campusgroups.com/Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/POST
Single Logout Service (SLO) URL: https://www.campusgroups.com/Shibboleth.sso/SLO/POST
Basic SSO Configuration Requirements
Add our Service Provider as a trusted party
For InCommon Federation Members, use our EntityID
For Non InCommon Federation Members, use our Metadata URL
Provide your Metadata information
For InCommon Federation Members provide the entityId of your Identity Provider
For Non InCommon Federation Members
Provide a link to your Metadata or a copy of the Metadata File itself
Provide the entityId of your Identity Provider
Confirm user identifier attribute release.
Attributes must be released in urn:oid format and may require additional configuration in your Identity Provider system.
You will need to release at least one attribute with a name from the following list and whose value will be used as the primary identifier for users signing in:
urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.6 (also referred to as "eppn"; only applicable for customers running Shibboleth IdP as their Identity Provider using a configuration that matches the EduPerson standard)
urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3 (also referred to as "mail"; best choice if the primary identifier you will be releasing also serves as a valid email address for the user)
urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.1 (also referred to as "uid"; best choice if the primary identifier you will be releasing is not a valid email address for the user)
Please send this information to our Support team at support@campusgroups.com. We will configure your SSO connection and follow up with testing and verification next steps.
Just-In-Time Provisioning
If you are planning on enabling provisioning of new users as they first sign in through SAML, please inform your Implementation Team, Campus Success Associate, or email support@campusgroups.com who will assist in gathering the necessary information to set up these features.
To configure JIT Provisioning through SSO you will need to release additional supported attributes from the list at the bottom of this article which can be mapped to first name, last name, email, netid, account type and year of graduation similar to:
urn:oid:2.5.4.42 -> first name
urn:oid:2.5.4.4 -> last name
urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3 -> email address
urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.9 -> account type
If the attribute mapped to Account Type is single valued (for example if passing a "primary affiliation" with a single value), we will also need the mapping information that translates possible values for this attribute to the matching Account Type in CampusGroups plus a default Account Type for unmapped values; for example:
student => CG Student
faculty => CG Staff & Faculty
staff => CG Staff & Faculty
DEFAULT => CG Guest
If the attribute mapped to Account Type is multi-valued (for example if passing a list of affiliations for the user), we will also need the mapping information that translates possible combinations of values for this attribute to the matching Account Type in CampusGroups and/or which Account Type to map to based on a value present in the list and finally a default Account Type for unmapped values; for example:
employee,student => CG Student Employee
faculty => CG Staff & Faculty
employee,faculty => CG Staff & Faculty
staff => CG Staff & Faculty
employee,staff => CG Staff & Faculty
CONTAINS student => CG Student
DEFAULT => CG Guest
Note that exact combination matches take precedence over "CONTAINS" mapping which take precedence over the DEFAULT mapping.
Account type and year of graduation can be omitted, but since they are used for access control throughout the platform, we strongly suggest adding them.
If the values used for the account type attribute do not match the possible values configured on your CampusGroups platform, you will also need to provide us with the mapping between the two sets of values.
Supported Attributes
We are only able to accept these attribute Object Identifiers
Note that any of these fields can be mapped to any of the CampusGroups profile fields regardless of their default name.
