Important Note: nShift Entra Gallery Application requires the following Permissions: openid and profile. You may need to grant admin consent for them while performing the setup.

Steps in the setup:

 

Step 1: Getting an nShift Portal user 

The customer’s EntraID Administrator (the user performing the nShift Application registration) will need an nShift Portal user.

Please contact nShift Support and ask for a user account to be created for your EntraID Administrator. You'll need to provide the Entra Administrator’s username and your Microsoft EntraID Tenant ID. nShift will then give you the nShift-Portal username, which will already have the necessary SSO setup. Make sure this user has the SSO Configuration functionality enabled.

This user will be used while performing Steps 2 and 3.

 

 

Step 2: Configure SSO configuration in nShift Portal

  1. Log into nShift Portal go to Settings > CompanyManagement >  Single Sign-On (SSO).
     
  2. Select a nShiftMarketplace from the drop-down list and click Save.

  3. Fill in the Valid issuer field with your organization’s tenant id.

    This must have the following structure: https://sts.windows.net/{TENANT_ID}/

    Example:

  4. Click Save.
     
  5. Go to Settings > CompanyManagement > CustomerUsers.
     
  6. Edit your user by selecting from the SSO external provider dropdown nShiftGallery and click Save.

  7. Log out of the nShift Portal.

 

 

Step 3: Register nShift Application 
 

  1. Go to Microsoft Azure -> Enterprise applications and click New application.

  2. You will  be taken to the Microsoft Entra Gallery. Once there, search for nShift, and you should see nShift_IdentityProvider listed near the top. Click on Sign up for nShift_IdentityProvider to continue.

  3. You will be redirected to the nShift Portal login page. Enter the credentials (nShift Portal username) previously used for the nShift Portal configuration and sign in. 
     
  4. After a successful login, the nShift Entra Gallery App should be added to your list of Enterprise Applications.

Step 4: Configure EntraID user access 


Customer should configure their EntraID Users to have access to the EntraID nShift Application.

Make the necessary changes within Assign users and groups.

*)Important note: nShift does not support User Provisioning at this time. All of the customer’s users who wish to access nShift-Portal will have to be created within nShift-Portal.

 

 

Step 5: Additional setup for nShift-Portal users 

If the nShift Portal user created for the registration in Step 1 is not the main user (owner) for the nShift-Portal customer’s account, nShift can provide support to make the necessary changes.
