Subject: Assistance Required for Office 365 SSO Integration in Brightspace
Dear Brightspace Support,
I am currently trying to integrate Office 365 Single Sign-On (SSO) with D2L Brightspace but cannot find the authentication tools or relevant settings to complete the integration from the Brightspace side. I have already configured the application on the Office 365 portal (Azure AD) and have the necessary credentials (Client ID, Tenant ID, and Secret) but require assistance in setting up the SSO integration within Brightspace.
Could you please assist me with the following:
1. How do I access the authentication settings in Brightspace to configure SSO with Office 365? 2. Is there any additional configuration or permission required on the Brightspace platform to enable the SSO integration? 3. If this feature is not visible due to any restrictions, can it be enabled for our instance? 4. Any specific documentation or steps related to integrating Brightspace with Office 365/Azure AD that could help in this process would be highly appreciated.
Thank you for your support, and I look forward to your guidance in resolving this issue.

Hi Ali,
The following resources cover the questions raised above:
If, when in Admin Tools, you cannot see the SAML Administration link you'll need to either amend the role permissions enabling to access the SAML Administration UI. If you are in a role in which you cannot make these changes please connect with a Brightspace Administrator in your institution to amend the role permissions, therein providing you access to the SAML Administration UI.
The role permissions required are highlighted here
Hope that helps!
