Hi ,

We are planning to implement MFA(multi factor authentication) for Jenkins 2.138 . I installed SAML plugin 1.0.7 and configured it with IDP metadata provided by service provider.Display Name attribute and group attribute are auto filled by Jenkins as below  . After restarting Jenkins , it goes through all the MFA steps like entering username /password/OTP(PIN) and after successful verification of all the login information , it goes back to SSO login screen instead of Jenkins application . We are using project -based Matrix Authorization Strategy which is tied with Network username and password(ENT).  Any idea why we are not able to connect to the Jenkins application ? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Did you read the documentation at https://github.com/jenkinsci/saml-plugin/tree/master/doc? you should take a look at the troubleshooting guide. The probable cause, it is that you do not set the proper group and display name for your IdP, Jenkins do not know anything about your IdP and different IdP use to use different attributes. If you increase the verbosity of the logs (see the troubleshooting guide) you could see the attributes in the message and you can set the proper values, also you can ask to your IdP for those attributes.
