Create Relying Party Trust in ADFS

In ADFS you need to create a Relying Party Trust. The following procedure uses ADFS 3.0 on Windows Server 2016 and shows demistodev.local as the ADFS portal service which will allow a trust connection from the https://demo.demisto.com web server.

You must have a valid and trusted server certificate for ADFS to work, not the self-signed certificates that come with Cortex XSOAR. If you do not use a trusted server certificate for ADFS, you will experience TLS connection issues with ADFS and the integration will not work properly.

In the Configure Identifiers page, add the Relying party trust identifier. The identifier can be a friendly name, the same as the Display name, or the application URL. This identifier is used to redirect the user back to the Cortex XSOAR web server instead of asking the user to manually choose which service should log in to the ADFS IDP portal.
