If your company has an Enterprise contract and plan with us, you and anyone else from your company will have the option to sign in using Single Sign-On (SSO).

Given this feature's very technical nature, SSO is typically set up by a technical person within your company, so this article will focus mainly on providing an overview of how to get the feature, and how it works.

Getting the SSO Feature

In order to get this feature, you will need to have a bespoke Enterprise plan which includes access to the SSO feature.

If you're interested in our Enterprise offerings, then make sure to get in touch with our sales team via the following page: https://www.involve.me/pricing

Just scroll down to the "Enterprise" section, select "Contact Sales" and fill in the form so our team can get in touch with you.

SSO allows your company to enforce signing in through your own SAML2 login provider. This means that all users with an email on your company's domain will be required to sign in using SSO. Signing in with email/password or other providers, such as Google, will not be possible. However, if your company also uses Google as an identity provider, you can configure it as a SAML2 provider to enforce SSO through Google.

It's important to note that while any user with an email on your company's domain can sign in using SSO, but they will not be automatically added to any workspaces. It will be up to the admin of your company's account to manually add them to the appropriate workspaces.

How to Set up the Feature

Once you're officially on an Enterprise plan, you can start setting up SSO in your organization. To do this, simply head over to the dropdown next to your account's name and pick the option "Settings".

On this next page, you'll have the necessary options to set up the feature. After you have saved your details, make sure to get in touch with our support team so that SSO can also be enabled on our end.

Once everything is set up, signing up with SSO is easy. Just access the involve.me login page and pick "Sign in with SSO".

If the feature has been successfully enabled, then you and any employee from your company should be able to login using your company email address.

When signing in with SSO, users will be redirected to your company's SAML2 login page. Once they have successfully authenticated, they will be redirected back to our platform and logged in.

If a user attempts to sign in with an email on your company's domain but does not have an account on our platform, one will be automatically created for them. However, they will not be added to any workspaces until the admin of your company's account manually adds them.
