For example, the SP Start URL would be https://jira.company.com

10. Set the SAML Offset Minutes to make up for time differences between devices

11. Set the SAML Valid Hours to limit for how long the SAML assertion is valid

Optionally, in the Forms Auth / SSO Token section, click the View and Configure FormsAuth keys/SSO token link to configure the token/cookie settings and configure this realm for SSO.

  1. In the Forms Authentication section, set the following:

    Indicate whether SecureAuth IdP will deliver the token in a cookie to the user’s browser or device:

    • UseCookies – Always deliver a cookie

    • UseUri – Do not deliver a cookie, deliver the token in a query string

    • AutoDetect – Deliver a cookie if the user’s settings allow it.

    • UseDeviceProfile – Deliver a cookie if the browser settings allow it, regardless of the user’s settings

    Sliding Expiration

    For the cookie to remain valid as long as the user is interacting with the page, set to True.

    Timeout

    Set the length of time in minutes the cookie is valid.
