2. Go to your Organization on the left menu and navigate to the “Single Sign-On” page.
3. Select Azure as your SSO Provider
4. Copy your ACS URL and set it aside, you’ll need it during the IdP configuration.
5. Provide a SSO Point of Contact (This is used primary to help support your organization if there are any issues and we need to identify who set up your SSO.)

**Ensure that you directly input the XML Metadata as plain text, do not submit a URL.

Note: If you’re using Azure AD in US Government Cloud
It uses the URL format: https://login.microsoftonline.us
