MuleSoft offers an integration platform helping businesses connect data, applications and devices across on-premises and cloud computing environments (see https://www.mulesoft.com/). You can protect access to MuleSoft by integrating MuleSoft with Identity as a Service. Once integrated, users can use single sign-on to log in to their MuleSoft account through Identity as a Service.
Note: This integration was tested using Identity as a Service version 5.14 and MuleSoft Anypoint Platform Private Cloud Edition 3.0.0. Other versions of MuleSoft may require integration and configuration steps that differ from those documented in this procedure. For other versions of MuleSoft, this integration guide may be used as an initial approach for integrating MuleSoft. In the event of other issues, contact support@entrust.com for assistance.
