Note: This guide was written before the renaming. Just replace HackMD with CodiMD in your mind 😄 thanks!

  1. Sign-in or sign-up for an OneLogin account. (available free trial for 2 weeks)

  2. Go to the administration page.

  3. Select the APPS menu and click on the Add Apps.
    onelogin-add-app

  4. Find "SAML Test Connector (SP)" for template of settings and select it.
    onelogin-select-template

  5. Edit display name and icons for OneLogin dashboard as you want, and click SAVE.
    onelogin-edit-app-name

  6. After that other tabs will appear, click the Configuration, and fill out the below items, and click SAVE.

    • RelayState: The base URL of your CodiMD, which is issuer. (last slash is not needed)
    • ACS (Consumer) URL Validator: The callback URL of your CodiMD. (serverurl + /auth/saml/callback)
    • ACS (Consumer) URL: same as above.
    • Login URL: login URL(SAML requester) of your CopiMD. (serverurl + /auth/saml)

        "production": {
          "saml": {
            "idpSsoUrl": "https://*******.onelogin.com/trust/saml2/http-post/sso/******",
            "idpCert": "/path/to/idp_cert.pem"
          }
        }
      }
