ASP.NET Core Web Application ( .Net core 3.0 )

Prerequisite

• Sustainsys.Saml2.AspNetcore2 Library – Author : Sustainsys

NuGet package installation

• Install the Sustainsys.Saml2.AspNetcore2 Library from Project > Manage NuGet Packages > Sustainsys.Saml2.AspNetcore2 by Sustainsys

• Login to https://live.pureauth.io/organizations/login/
• Navigate to the Applications tab.
• Select “Add Application”.
• Select “Custom App”.

• Enter Any application Name.
• Select Primary (Corporate Email) in the Dataset for email field.

Instead of localhost, you can use your “https://<domain with port>/Saml2/Acs“

https://<domain with port>/Saml2/Acs

• In “Audience (Entity ID)” field, enter the URL using the following pattern:

https://<domain with port>/Saml2

• In “SAML Logout Response Endpoint (SLO URL)” field enter the URL using the following pattern:

https://<domain with port>/Saml2

Sign Assertion : checked

Library Configuration

• Add Below Directives in startup.cs

using WebApplicationC2.Data;
using Sustainsys.Saml2.Metadata;
using Sustainsys.Saml2;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using Sustainsys.Saml2.WebSso;
using System.IO;
using System;

• The field highlighted in Pink, set the directives as per the application name.

• Inside ConfigureServices() Section add below services.AddAuthentication().

 services.AddAuthentication()
  .AddSaml2(options =>
    {
     options.SPOptions.EntityId = new EntityId("https://localhost:44393/Saml2");
    var idp = new IdentityProvider(new EntityId("https://live.pureauth.io/auth/custom-app-saml/45177dcfc3/10b42280-4787-45fe-909a-6fc9a2bcb0ff"), options.SPOptions)
     {

        AllowUnsolicitedAuthnResponse = true,
        Binding = Saml2BindingType.HttpRedirect,
        SingleSignOnServiceUrl = new Uri("https://live.pureauth.io/auth/custom-app-saml/45177dcfc3/10b42280-4787-45fe-909a-6fc9a2bcb0ff")

      };

    idp.SigningKeys.AddConfiguredKey(new X509Certificate2(Path.Combine("C:\\PureAuth\\WebApplicationC2", "cert.pem")));
options.IdentityProviders.Add(idp);
    });

• The field highlighted in Red will be the SP Entity ID https://<domain with port>/Saml2.
• The field highlighted in Orange will be the Idp Entity ID to be configured in the PureAuth Portal.
• The field highlighted in Blue will be the SAML LOGIN URL to be configured in the PureAuth Portal.
• The field highlighted in Green will be the X.509 CERTIFICATE to be configured in the PureAuth Portal. ( Follow the steps below to add an X.509 certificate. )
  • Create Notepad file in project folder.
  • Copy X.509 CERTIFICATE from PureAUTH portal and paste in notepad.
  • Save file as .pem Extension.
