Does Dropbox SAML SSO support IdP self-signed certificates?
Hello everyone, I'm integrating Dropbox (as the Service Provider) with our internal IdP using SAML SSO and would like to confirm a few things: Does Dropbox support using a self-signed certificate ...
Thanks for your patience Ziv
Dropbox SAML SSO does support IdP self signed x.509 certificates. As long as the certificate is provided in standard PEM format and included in your IdP metadata, Dropbox can use it to validate signed SAML assertions.
If you use a self signed certificate, just be sure it is kept up to date and that your team has a process for rotating it before expiration. There is no requirement for the certificate to come from a public certificate authority.
