This article guides admins through the steps to configure Single Sign-On (SSO), enabling users to access Peoplebox securely with a smooth and simplified login experience.

Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication process that allows users to access multiple applications with one set of login credentials. Peoplebox supports the option of SSO authentication to provide a seamless sign-on experience to users. SSO integration with Peoplebox is a step towards enterprise readiness to provide easy and adequate access for larger teams without the added burden of managing login credentials.

Note: Peoplebox can only accept the user's email address. In setup, the user defines the SAML assertion with necessary data. Peoplebox SSO will fail if it receives anything but an email address.

Prerequisites: You must have an active Peoplebox account with company admin access.
