Single sign on URL is composed from the Checkmarx URL and “/cxrestapi/auth/samlAcs”, e.g. https://checkmarx.corp.net/cxrestapi/auth/samlAcs. This is the location where the SAML assertion is sent with a HTTP POST.
Audience URI (SP Entity ID) field should be populated with a unique SP identifier (a single IdP can support multiple services). By convention, Audience URI is the SP server URI, e.g. https://checkmarx.corp.net.
