- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- In the Authentication setting in NAVER Cloud login component, enter the desired value for Tenant alias.

Change external IdP login settings
This describes how to register external IdP information to integrate with an external account and set up a user profile to integrate.
Connect Organization
The master account can integrate and manage SSO user access permissions to resources held by member accounts within the Organization by integrating with the Organization service.
To integrate with the Organization service:
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Click the [Connect Organization] in the external IdP login component.
- When Organization integration is completed, the list of member accounts that can manage access permissions is updated in the assignment menu.
If you cancel Organization integration, all account information linked to the Permission Set will also be deleted, which may affect the SSO user's permissions.
Register external IdP
You can set up an integration system between the external IdP and the Ncloud Single Sign-On service by registering the metadata of the external IdP to be integrated.
To register external IdP information:
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Click the [Register external IDP] in External IDP metadata in the External IdP login component.
- When the identity provider metadata interface appears, enter the metadata of the external IdP to be integrated in the metadata component and then click the [Save].
- When valid metadata is entered, sub-information will be automatically entered.
- Click the [Register].
Delete external IdP
You can stop Ncloud Single Sign-On integration with external IdP by deleting the integrated external IdP information.
To delete external IdP information:
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Click the [Delete external IDP] in External IDP metadata in the External IdP login component.
Set login
To change the login settings for an account logged in with an external account:
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Change the desired settings in the login settings of the External IdP login component.
- Session timeout: The session expiration time of the logged-in external account. You can select from among 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 3 hours, and if there is no activity during the set time, you will be automatically logged out.
- Allow duplicate log-in: Select whether to allow duplicate logins. If duplicate logins are not allowed, only 1 session can be accessed per SSO role.
- Possession authentication: Select whether to apply possession authentication. If you apply possession authentication, you can register and manage the authenticated email/SMS information of the SSO user in NAVER Cloud Platform. You can select whether to apply or not.
- Possession authentication items: Select the method for possession authentication. You can select either email, SMS, or email+SMS.
- Two-factor authentication: Select whether to apply two-factor authentication. If you apply two-factor authentication, you enter the SSO user's ID and password at login and select email/SMS/OTP for further authentication. You can select whether to apply or not.
For the customers who are not using the authentication feature yet, the SSO users' authentication feature can be improved using possession authentication and two-factor authentication features.
The description of possession authentication is as follows:
- Perform authentication only once "at the first login to NAVER Cloud Platform after creating an SSO user," or "at the first login to NAVER Cloud Platform after changing the external IdP information."
- If the SSO user with applied possession authentication fails to authenticate, the user cannot log in to NAVER Cloud Platform.
- Two-factor authentication is performed based on information entered for possession authentication, which is automatically applied along with its application.
For example, if only email were allowed for a possession authentication item, you cannot apply two-factor authentication via SMS.
The description of two-factor authentication is as follows:
- Perform two-factor authentication every time you log in to NAVER Cloud Platform.
- If the SSO user who has applied two-factor authentication fails to authenticate, the user cannot log in to NAVER Cloud Platform.
Manage user profile
You can enter user profile information to integrate external accounts and Ncloud Single Sign-On accounts.
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Click the [Attribute mapper] in the External IdP login component.
- Enter the user properties information for the external account you wish to integrate.
- In sync mode, set the user profile update method.
- None: Do not update user profile.
- Import: Update user profiles only at first login.
- Force: Update the user profile at every login.
- Click the [Save].
Manage certificate
You can create and import the service provider certificate and external IdP certificate required for external IdP login, and configure alerts for certificate expiration.
- From the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to
> Services > Management & Governance > Ncloud Single Sign-On. - Click the Tenant menu.
- Click the [Manage certificate] in the External IdP login component.
- The [Manage certificate] button becomes available after registering an External IdP.
