|   | For assistance configuring Coupa for SAML single sign-on (SSO), Coupa recommends you send your prepared `idp-metadata.xml` to their support team or your Coupa Implementation Administrator along with:- Login page URL

- Logout page URL

- Timeout URL

- A test user that exists in your identity provider (IdP) |

## Steps

1. Sign on to your Coupa account as an administrative user.

2. Click the **Setup** tab.

3. In the **Company Setup** section, click **Security controls**.

4. Import the `idp-metadata.xml` that you prepared above into the **Upload IdP metadata** field.

   |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
   | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   |   | During development and testing of the Coupa connector, Ping Identity was unable to upload the `idp-metadata.xml` into Coupa without receiving errors. Coupa Support assisted with this configuration. |

5. Select the **Advanced Options** checkbox.

6. In the **Login page URL** field, enter the Login page URL:

   ### Choose from:

   * SP-initiated SSO: Enter `https://prdsso40.cloudcoupa.com/sp/startSSO.ping?PartnerIdpId=YOUR_PF_ENTITY_ID&TARGET=https://YOUR_COUPA_SUBDOMAIN.cloudcoupa.com/sessions/saml_post`

   * IdP-Initiated SSO: Points to the login page of your IdP.

7. In the **Logout page URL** field, enter the Logout page URL.

   The **Logout page URL** is set to where your users should be directed when they sign off of Coupa.

8. In the **Timeout URL** field, enter the Timeout URL.

   The **Timeout URL** is set to where your users should be directed if their session times out before they sign on.

9. Click **Save**.
