What error do I receive?

Something went wrong
The response signature failed cryptographic validation

What have I done so far?

  • Domain claim completed
  • IDP configuration completed
    • Issuer URL
    • Login URL in IDP
    • Metadata URL from IDP
  • Attribute mapping (in the following order)
    • givenname -> DisplayName
    • surname -> DisplayName
    • emailaddress -> Email
  • Addition of IDP public certificate
    • Algorithm: RS256 (4096 bits) (20 years expiration)
    • Type: X509

Additional Information:

  • I tested on a development account where I created an org and connected it to a staging environment.
  • I tested in the production environment alongside the current IDP that is configured.
  • In both environments, I received the same error message.
  • The domain claim was made for both environments, which share the same domain but have different subdomains.

I did not find any mention of this issue in the documentation. What I thought might have happened is some kind of incompatibility between the IDP requirements and the SP.
Another hypothesis is in the attribute mapping—the format in which the IDP sends the attributes is completely different from what DocuSign requires, even though I mapped them as shown earlier.

Hey Mr. Nathaly and Mr. Marco - you don’t get any best answer till you provide one - nothing you wrote is at all helpful.

 

I have the same issue and yea it is the first time setting up sso.

Hello ​@MuriloGoncalves and ​@rfransix,

I hope you’re doing well. Thank you for bringing your question to this community. I apologize for the delay in responding.

The "The response signature failed cryptographic validation" error during SSO setup typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the SAML response signature from the Identity Provider and the certificate configured in Docusign.

To possibly solve the issue:

  • Re-export the current signing certificate from your IdP and re-upload it to Docusign

If you continue to encounter errors, I recommend that you submit a support case so that our support team can take a closer look at the issue. Open a case in the Docusign Support Center
