In this tutorial, you will learn how to set up an Azure AD SSO. Single Sign-On(SSO) is a session and user authentication method that allows you to login with only one set of credentials. This is really useful if you need to access multiple applications. It’s enabled by the SAML(Security Assertion Markup Language) and in this tutorial, we’ll show you how to setup SSO in Azure AD with V2 Cloud.
