RE: Liferay DXP login through ADFS
Hello, I want to do login Authentication through ADFS for Liferay DXP, Can you please provided instructions how to make that SSO implementation between ADFS & Liferay EE
ADFS is nothing more than branded LDAP.
Follow the instructions to set up LDAP for authentication and you'll be all set.

ADFS isn't AD, it is something different.

David, what ever you said is wrong, may be you did not understand my question.
Sorry, Sree, you and Christoph are right, I was quick-reading it and stopped at AD...
You'd need to use SAML for the SSO authentication using ADFS, but I don't think that is offered in CE.
There's no "native" ADFS authentication support in Liferay.

I never got to try it, but you should be able to use the SAML2 connector of DXP.

If you try it that way, I would be interested if that works without issues.

Chris, I want to use IDP as ADFS , let's say If I hit Liferay protected resources then it has to route to ADFS url once my credential passed then that ADFS has to redirect to Liferay protected resource.
Yes, I understand. But to do that, you need to use SAML2.
Chris, can you please let me details about that , I know about saml2. But let me know the details steps for ADFS & Liferay dxp
Sorry, I have never done this. I really can't tell you any steps/details.
You have to download the SAML2 module and then configure it. ADFS also should have some configuration page for SAML2. Maybe there are some general guides on ADFS/SAML2 that help you.

it seems Liferay does not have proper information about this, it's nightmare to Liferay customers
There is plenty of documentation for using SAML with Liferay as the SP as well as with the IdP (although that is not what you need).
SAML is a standard and is about connecting pieces that conform to the standard, but that doesn't mean that every SP needs to or can document every possible SAML-based IdP solution.
You're going to have to do some work on this, Sree. Set up ADFS as a SAML IdP ala a page like this: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203663886-Setting-up-single-sign-on-using-Active-Directory-with-ADFS-and-SAML
Then connect Liferay as a SAML SP like this: https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028711032-Authenticating-Using-SAML and https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028711052-Setting-up-Liferay-DXP-as-a-SAML-Service-Provider
The rest is going to be on you.

Thanks David
Chrish , Do I need to download saml2 in liferay and what configuration I have to do on liferay side ? and what we have to do on ADFS side ?
Here is our documentation for configuring SAML2 with Liferay DXP: https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028711032-Authenticating-Using-SAML
Unfortunately we don't have much experience with ADFS since it's a 3rd party integration. I did find a blog post that may help though: https://liferay.dev/blogs/-/blogs/adfs-liferay-dxp-integration
