Add groups to control role-based access for SAML users (users who sign in with SSO).

Overview

The process is simple:
  1. In the Minimus console, configure SSO and enable SAML. Learn more
    Make sure to configure the groups mapping attribute in the Minimus SAML form.
  2. In your identity provider, assign the relevant groups to the Minimus application. See the Okta example
  3. In the Minimus console, add the groups and set their role. Learn about user roles
That’s it. Permissions will automatically take effect the next time group members log into Minimus.
Currently, only Okta groups are supported by Minimus.

Add Groups

Group roles are evaluated at runtime and the highest role is assigned to the user.
  1. Go to Manage > Users & Groups (or click this direct link).
    Note that SSO must be configured and enabled before you can manage groups in Minimus.
  2. Click Add Group (top right).
  3. Fill in the form:
    1. Specify the group name as listed in the identity provider.
    2. The provider will be set to SAML. This setting is hardcoded.
    3. Select the role: viewer, operator, admin.
      1. Viewer is the default role. If no role is assigned to a group in Minimus, it will automatically be given the viewer role.
      2. Operator role.
      3. Admin role.
  4. Save your changes. Changes will apply the next time group members log in with SSO.
