Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication is not supported out of the box for Spotfire.

But you can write a custom authenticator for use with external authentication.

Spotfire does support OIDC (OpenID Connect) for web authentication.
 

All supported operating systems.

You can find an example of how to setup Spotfire to use SAML in the following Spotfire community article:

https://community.spotfire.com/articles/spotfire/saml2-integration-spotfire-example-shibboleth/

If you have questions about that example, you can post a question in the Spotfire community.



We also encourage you to vote for the following idea in the Spotfire Ideas Portal:

('Native SAML authentication support')

Product Management owns the Ideas Portal, and pays close attention to each idea and the votes and comments it receives.
 

This article confirms that SAML authentication is not supported out of the box for Spotfire. We support using OIDC for web authentication. But you can write a custom authenticator for use with external authentication, following an example from the Spotfire community.
