5. Click Single sign-on in the navigation bar

6. Click on SAML to select SAML as the single sign-on method

7. Edit the Basic SAML Configuration and enter these details then Save:

Identifier: urn:amazon:cognito:sp:us-west-2_QKp3VycRu
Reply URL: https://lightyear-live.auth.us-west-2.amazoncognito.com/saml2/idpresponse

8. Sign on URL: https://app.lightyear.cloud/sso-verification
Logout Uri: https://app.lightyear.cloud/login

​9. Under the SAML Certificates section, copy the App Federation Metadata Url and give this to Lightyear.

At this point you can make any other configuration changes to your application e.g. assigning users.

Please Note: There are setup and ongoing monthly costs involved in the implementation of SSO.
