# MuleSoft

MuleSoft offers an integration platform helping businesses connect data, applications and devices across on-premises and cloud computing environments (see <https://www.mulesoft.com/>). You can protect access to MuleSoft by integrating MuleSoft with Identity as a Service. Once integrated, users can use single sign-on to log in to their MuleSoft account through Identity as a Service.

warning

This integration was tested using Identity as a Service version 5.14 and MuleSoft Anypoint Platform Private Cloud Edition 3.0.0. Other versions of MuleSoft may require integration and configuration steps that differ from those documented in this procedure. For other versions of MuleSoft, use this procedure as a starting point for integrating MuleSoft. In the event of other issues, contact <support@entrust.com> for assistance.

## Step 1: Copy the SAML Configurations from Identity as a Service

1. Log into your Identity as a Service administrator account.

2. Click Menu icon **>** **Security > Applications**. The **Applications** **Lists** page appears.

3. Under **SAML Cloud Integrations**, click **SAML Configuration**. The **SAML Configuration** dialog box appears.

   This dialog box contains information you need to configure your SAML application for Identity as a Service authentication.

4. Do one of the following:

   - Leave this dialog box open to reference later in this procedure.
   - Copy the Entity ID, Single Sign-on URL, and Single Logout URL to a text file and save it to reference later in this procedure.

note

Depending on the integration you are performing, you may not need all three of these SAML configuration values.
