When configuring SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) for authentication in Tableau Server, which of the following steps is essential for successful integration?
A.
Enabling automatic user provisioning within the SAML provider to create Tableau Server accounts
B.
Configuring Tableau Server to redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS for secure communication
C.
Obtaining and installing an SSL certificate specifically for the SAML provider
D.
Importing the SAML provider's metadata into Tableau Server for proper identity provider configuration
Importing the SAML provider’s metadata into Tableau Server for proper identity provider configuration Importing the SAML provider’s metadata into Tableau Server is a crucial step in configuring SAML for authentication. This metadata contains necessary information like the identity provider’s URL and certificate, which Tableau Server uses to establish a trust relationship and securely exchange authentication data. Option A is incorrect because automatic user provisioning within the SAML provider is not a requirement for SAML integration with Tableau Server. Option B is incorrect as redirecting HTTP to HTTPS, while a good security practice, is not specific to the configuration of SAML authentication. Option C is incorrect as the SSL certificate is typically installed on the Tableau Server, not specifically for the SAML provider.
