Before you get started, this guide will walk you through all that is required to set up an application on Zoho using the Open ID Connect for use with the HRMS application.
Requirements
- Client ID
- Client Secret
In addition, we will require a test account to be created for SeamlessHR support staff to verify the integration. This account will enable us to act like an employee of yours and log in to the HRMS application to test that the SSO login is now fine.
- Email: e.g. seamlesshr_test@{YOUR_DOMAIN}.com
- Password
To register an application, open your browser and go to https://api-console.zoho.com/ then click the Get Started button.
On the next screen, select Server-based Applications then click on the create now button.
On the next screen, enter the Client Name, then set the homepage URL as your HRMS application domain and enter {hrms-url}/zoho/callback as the Authorized Redirect Urls then click on the Create button.
On the next screen, you will be shown the Client ID and Client Secret. Copy both credentials somewhere as you will need to share them with the SeamlessHR team for provisioning.
Voila!!!
