OBIEE Authentication Through OFFICE 365
Hello Experts,
We are trying create a scenario where a user logs in to Office 365 and he gets authenticated in OBIEE as well. He doesn't has to go through one more authentication to view OBIEE Dashboards. I wanted to know if this can be achieved, if Yes can i please get steps of how to configure it.
Thanks.

Oracle BI Add-in for Microsoft Office currently cannot be fully integrated with Single Sign-On. If the Oracle BI EE implementation is SSO-enabled, users can use their SSO credentials from the Oracle BI Add-in for Microsoft Excel or the Oracle BI Add-in for Microsoft PowerPoint to sign into Oracle BI Add-in for Microsoft Office
More details on how to integrate here : https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e10544/appoffice.htm#BIEUG10633

Hello Anjum,
Thank You for your reply actual we are trying to use Office 365 portal(sharepoint) to Authenticate users to OBIEE.
So when a user logs in to Sharepoint we want him to be Authenticated to our OBIEE environment without doing one more login. I wanted to know can we achieve this kind of scnario.
Thanks,

I can't say I've ever heard this being done. Not to say it can't be...
You need to figure out how to get WLS to use Office365 as an authentication directory (maybe? Does Office 365 expose its LDAP?), and then figure out the SSO/SAML side of things.
Some docs to start with:
https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/biee/BIESC/sso.htm#BIESC6044

Thank You rmoff,
I will go through the documents. I have checked this link,
https://blogs.office.com/2014/03/06/announcing-support-for-saml-2-0-federation-with-office-365/
Office 365 supports saml2.0 only with federation. I was wandering if someone achieved this kind of scenario. That would help me know if it is actually doable.
Thanks.

I have not heard someone achieve that. It would be interesting to know your results.
