What is SSO?

With Single Sign-On (SSO), your users can log in to the online academy using an external account. Read more about SSO in general here.

In this article, we explain what needs to be configured to activate this integration with Google.

To use SSO, users must already be added to the online academy. SSO does not create user accounts.

How do I configure Google SSO (SAML)?

We will provide instructions on how to set up SSO. To achieve this, we have a SAML integration with Google, and an OAuth integration. In this article, we will cover the SAML variant. Below you will find a step-by-step guide on how to activate this integration. Please consult Google's support for the precise settings.

To set up SSO via Google (SAML), follow the steps below. This Google support article will assist you with this process.

Step-by-step guide for creating the integration in the online academy

  1. Go to “Integrations” via the menu on the left.

  2. Under “Single Sign-On,” choose “Google (SAML).”

  3. Click “Add.”

  4. Enter the information obtained from Google.

  5. If desired, enable the toggles under “Integration status”:

    • Use “Activated” to specify whether the integration is active.

    • With “Login with button,” you can choose whether a button should be displayed on the login screen. If this option is disabled, users can only log in via an external SSO method (e.g. intranet).

  6. Save the changes to activate the integration.
