At Coursera for Business, we’re always launching new product features that will help you deliver better learning programs. This month, we’re excited to let you know about a recently released improvement to the learner experience for customers with LMS integrations into Coursera.
SSO deep-link parameter
Many of our enterprise customers are not able to implement IDP-initiated SSO with their Coursera for Business portal. As a consequence, SSO is typically implemented in the SP-initiated form with Coursera for Business initiating a SAML login request when each user clicks on a “Log in with your organisation” button.
With our recent release, you can now append a URL parameter onto each of the links to automatically initiate an SP-initiated SSO login attempt. We hope that this feature release will allow for an improved user experience between integrated LMS’ and Coursera.
Standard URLs
In the old world, each user must click the “Log in with your organisation” button to initiate their SP-initiated login attempt to Coursera.
Your program URL is structured as:
https://www.coursera.org/programs/your-program-title
A program course deep-link is structured as:
SSO enabled URLs
See in bold below, the URL parameter attemptSSOLogin=true can be appended to any Coursera for Business program URL or course deep link within the program.
Program URL: https://www.coursera.org/programs/your-program-title?attemptSSOLogin=true
Program course deep-link: https://www.coursera.org/programs/your-program-title?authProvider=execute&productId=jYd91UquEeWpQA4vMed_oQ&productType=course&showMiniModal=true&attemptSSOLogin=true
