Set SAML authentication(on-premise version)¶
CELF supports authentication that complies with SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) 2.0.
To use SAML authentication, you need to establish a trust relationship between the Identity Provider (IdP) and the Service Provider (SP).
The CELF service does not include IdP functionality, so please ensure that there is an available IdP in your environment.
