# Configuration steps

Before configuring SSO, you need to assign a namespace and create a service provider certificate and private key. These important steps provide information you need to enter later.

Create your namespace:

1. Go to **Administration > System settings**.
2. Scroll down to **SSO Type**.
3. Under **SSO type**, select **SAML 2.0**.

Create your service provider primary key and certificate:

1. Use openssl or similar. Mac users can use Terminal
2. Enter the following command:

`openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -new -nodes -x509 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem`

This example creates two separate files:

* `key.pem`
* `cert.pem`

Locate these files and have them ready to upload later.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developers.make.com/white-label-documentation/manage-login/okta-saml/configuration-steps.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
