HI,

I am trying to configure ServiceNow as Idp. I wanted to log in to my website using service now credentials.

The options I tried is

1-> SAML - But in that Service now only act as Service Provider, but I want Service now to act as Identity Provider

2->OpenId - in that also service now does not act as a provider.

My requirement is to log in to my website using service now credentials. Could someone please suggest some ideas

ServiceNow isn't setup to be an IdP, however you could use a web service login as a validation of the user credentials.   For example all user's of ServiceNow have access to their own sys_user record.   You could use SOAP or REST API to query for the user's profile using basic auth credentials provided from your other website.   If a record is returned this means success, if not then failure.
