If you use Cloudflare to centralize authentication and authorization in your business, you can integrate Kinde as a service provider for these processes. This gives you the benefits of Kinde’s robust auth capabilities, while keeping the familiar Cloudflare structure.
You need to set up an enterprise connection in Kinde for this, and add a Cloudflare application. We recommend setting up and testing the connection in a non-production environment before making available to users.
Enter a random string value for Entity ID, for e.g. 870sa9fbasfasdas23aghkhc12zasfnasd.
Complete any optional fields you want, including key attributes. You’ll add the IdP Metadata URL later.
Add Home realm domains. We recommend adding these to speed up the sign in process for users of those domains. Note that all home realm domains must be unique across all connections in an environment. For more information, see Home realm domains or IdP discovery.
If you use home realm domains, the sign in button is hidden on the auth screen by default. To show the SSO button, select the Always show sign-in button option.
Copy the Assertion Customer Service (ACS) URL and the Entity ID somewhere you can access it later. You’ll need this to set up your Cloudflare application.
Select provisioning options.
Add a signed certificate and key if you have it. You can also do this later.
Select Save.
Step 3: Add and configure your Cloudflare application
