Hi there,
just tried to activate SSO between Open Rainbow and Azure AD.
I already tried it once, didn't work (error message said that the cookie "SAMLRequestID" is missing) so I wanted to try again, maybe I did something wrong the first time.
Now I am stuck at step 6 with creating the enterprise app in Azure.
I got the Login and Logout URL, but I cannot download the certificate. The Hyperlink is grey. Did they change something in the process? All other fields look exactly like in the video.
The first time I tried it, I uploaded the Metadata file from Rainbow first, then put the certificate into Rainbow and uploaded the Metadata once again.
Maybe someone can help me out here with some tipps :-)
Thanks in advance
