1.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.
2.Access your Peoplebox "Settings" and click on the "Single Sign-On" option
3.Configure SSO: In this step, copy the SSO ACS URL and add it to your Identity Provider app (e.g., Okta, OneLogin, etc.) to generate the metadata XML file
4.Once the metadata XML file is generated, click the "Upload Metadata" button and upload the file
5.Enable SSO: Enable SSO for all users of the organization by clicking the "Enable SSO" button. Going forward, all users will be required to sign in through the Identity Provider login page.
Note: You can disable the SSO setup for your company anytime by toggling the "Enable SSO"
6.Points To Note:
Once SSO is enabled, Peoplebox accounts for all new users within your organization will be automatically activated. Entering the correct email will automatically redirect them to an SSO login.
You cannot reset your Peoplebox password when SSO is enabled. Instead, manage your password in your identity provider app (IDP)
