Google SSO
Capcade provides the option to enhance security and streamline access with Single Sign-On (SSO). This allows users to conveniently use their company's Google credentials to efficiently log in to Capcade.
Before you begin setup
Please verify that you have the necessary configurations and permissions enabled on Capcade:
Since SSO is set up on an entity level for all members of the entity, your entity users must be formally placed in an entity (learn more about entities on Capcade here)
You will need to be an entity admin to configure SSO for your entity (learn how to configure entity permissions here)
Your entity's plan must have the SSO feature enabled (contact your Capcade account representative or message chat support to request access)
Please note that you will also need to have a member of your IT team involved in the process of setting this up.
Step 1: Initial setup in Capcade
Click on "Entity" in the left-hand navigation pane
Click "Settings"
Toggle the "Single sign-on" on
Click "Edit"
Type "Google" as the name of your identity provider
Copy the Registration ID
Step 2: Initial setup in Google
Please visit the Google help article which outlines how to do the set up in Google.
Once you have completed the steps, you should end up with XML containing metadata which you will use in step 3 below.
Step 3: Activate SSO in Capcade
Go back to the "Configure identity provider" dialog in Capcade
Click on "Upload" and upload the XML metadata file you downloaded from Google in the previous step
Click "SAVE CONFIGURATION"
Your SSO should now be set up, and after entering your email on the Capcade login page, an option to log-in via SSO will be available.
