Use JumpCloud SAML Single Sign On (SSO) to give your users convenient but secure access to all their web applications with a single set of credentials. Automatically provision, update and deprovision users and groups in Island from JumpCloud using the Identity Management (SCIM) integration. Leverage this integration to centralize user lifecycle, user identity, and group management in JumpCloud for Island. Save time and avoid mistakes, as well as potential security risks, related to manually creating users.
Read this article to learn how to configure the Island integration.
Prerequisites
- A JumpCloud administrator account.
- A Island user account with admin privileges.
- Your Island tenant ID.
- Island SCIM API is based on version 2.0 of the SCIM standard.
- If you need to update your token, you must deactivate the IdM integration, update the token, and then reactivate the IdM integration.
- You cannot have more than one SCIM integration running at the same time.
- Pushing groups to the Island SCIM application will continuously sync and populate existing groups in the Island Management Console.
- Groups are supported.
Attribute Considerations
- A default set of attributes are managed for users. See the Attribute Mappings section for more details.
- The following attributes are not supported by Island:
- Addresses
- PhoneNumbers
- EmployeeNumber
Group Management Important Considerations
Enabling Group Management
You must select the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option to manage groups and group membership in the application from JumpCloud.
Group Provisioning and Syncing
- Empty groups are not created.
- JumpCloud takes over management of existing groups in the application when the user group name in JumpCloud matches the name of the group in the application.
- All user groups associated with the application in JumpCloud are synced. Syncing occurs whenever there is a membership or group change event.
- Group renaming is supported.
- If a user group is disassociated from the application in JumpCloud, syncing immediately stops and the group is left as-is in the application. All members of that user group are deactivated in the application unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.
Group Deletion
- Managed groups deleted in JumpCloud are deleted in the application.
- All members of the deleted group are deactivated in the application, unless they are associated with another active application group that is managed from JumpCloud.
Disabling Group Management
- You can disable group and group membership management by unchecking the Enable management of User Groups and Group Membership in this application option.
- The managed groups and group membership are left as-is in the application.
- JumpCloud stops sending group membership information for the user, but the user’s identity will continue to be managed from JumpCloud.
Creating a new JumpCloud Application Integration
- Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
- Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications.
- Click + Add New Application.
- Type the name of the application in the Search field and select it.
- Click Next.
- In the Display Label, type your name for the application. Optionally, you can enter a Description, adjust the User Portal Image and choose to hide or Show in User Portal.
- If this is a Bookmark application, enter its URL in the Bookmark URL field.
- Click Save Application.
- If successful, click:
- Configure Application and go to the next section.
- Close to configure your new connector at a later time.
Configuring the SSO Integration
To configure JumpCloud
- Create a new application or select it from the Configured Applications list.
- Select the SSO tab.
- Add or change any attributes.
- Replace any instances of YOUR_TENANT_ID with your Island tenant ID.
- Click save.
To download the certificate
- Find your application in the Configured Applications list and click anywhere in the row to reopen its configuration window.
- Select the SSO tab and click IDP Certificate Valid > Download certificate.
The certificate.pem will download to your local Downloads folder.
To configure Island
- To configure single sign-on on Island side, send the following to the Island support team:
- The certificate.pem downloaded in the previous section.
- JumpCloud IDP URL – https://sso.jumpcloud.com/saml2/island
- JumpCloud IdP Entity ID – JumpCloud
- JumpCloud logout URL – https://console.jumpcloud.com/userconsole/
- They will setup the SAML SSO connection and contact you when enabled
Authorizing User SSO Access
Users are implicitly denied access to applications. After you connect an application to JumpCloud, you need to authorize user access to that application. You can authorize user access from the Application Configuration panel or from the Groups Configuration panel.
To authorize user access from the Application Configuration panel
- Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
- Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications, then select the application to which you want to authorize user access.
- Select the User Groups tab. If you need to create a new group of users, see Get Started: Groups.
- Select the check box next to the group of users you want to give access.
- Click save.
To learn how to authorize user access from the Groups Configuration panel, see Authorize Users to an SSO Application.

- This should automatically launch and login to the application.
SP Initiated
- Navigate to your Service Provider application URL.
- You will be redirected to log in to the JumpCloud User Portal.
- The browser will be redirected back to the application and be automatically logged in.
Configuring the Identity Management Integration

Importing Users
This functionality is helpful if users have already been created in the application but have not been created in JumpCloud.
- Log in to the JumpCloud Admin Portal.
- Go to USER AUTHENTICATION > SSO Applications.
- Search for the application and click to open its configuration panel.
- Select the Identity Management tab.

- New – The user has not been imported.
- Imported – user has been imported and has an account in JumpCloud.
Tip: Try using the New Users-only filter when selecting users to import. This will move all of your new users to the top of the list, making them easier to identify and select.
- Click import.
- If you are importing less than 100 users, your import results will display in real time and you can continue onboarding your users.
- If you have more than 100 users being imported, JumpCloud will send you an email when your import is complete.
- You can now connect and grant users access to all their JumpCloud resources. Learn more in the Authorize Users to an Application and Connecting Users to Resources articles.
