Guide: SSO sign-in portal

These are instructions for Digital Iceland development and collaboration partners to sign-up up to the central SSO identification portal (IdP) and to request access to apps that are maintained by Digital Iceland

Initial registration to SSO portal

  • Go to https://access.stafraentisland.is/

  • Use your work account to register

For initial registration you need to set up multifactor authentication (MFA), e.g. using your Authenticator app (or other MFA apps). Please follow the guidelines on the screen. Azure Entra will guide you through the onboarding process.

My Access (onboarding to SSO portal)

  • Once logged-in/registered on https://access.stafraentisland.is/ you can send a legitimate access request (business reason) for accessing particular systems managed by Digital Iceland. Under "My Apps" in the portal, you can see which apps you already have access to

Request for access to system/app

  • Click on "My Access" and "Access Packages" on the left toolbar (https://access.stafraentisland.is)

  • To request access to a new system/app, you need to click on "Request" for that particular system/app (visible under "Available" tab), see image below:

  • In the request you need to provide a reason for the access (e.g. a particular project, agreements or other collaboration reason)

  • It's possible to request access for a limited period by marking "Request for specific period" and select "Yes" and then define the needed period. Click on "Continue" to finish the request, see image below:

Once a request has been sent, Digital Iceland will receive and email and will either grant or deny the access request, based on legitimate business reasons

You will receive an email once the access request has been processed

My Apps (access to systems/apps)

After the initial onboarding into the SSO Portal you can access your systems/apps directly from https://apps.stafraentisland.is. Under "My Apps" you can see which systems/apps you already have access to through the SSO Portal. To access the system/app you need to click on the app logo and it will open in a new window:

Common issues

If you do not find the systems/apps you should have access to, it's possible that your browser is directing you into your own Organization. To switch between Organizations you need to click on the icon in the top right corner of the browser window and select "Stafrænt Ísland"
