Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication method that allows a company to manage employee access to multiple services from a single location.
IT admins can instantly access multiple software services without having to register or remove employees from each system individually.
Employees can access all the necessary programs using a single set of credentials.
Perk SSO support
Perk supports configuring SSO with your identity provider using the OAuth 2.0 and SAML 2.0 protocols.
OAuth 2.0
OAuth 2.0 is a commonly used open standard for delegating access to server resources on behalf of a resource owner. It specifies a process for resource owners to authorize third-party access to their server resources without sharing their credentials. It was designed to work with the HTTP protocol.
If your company uses Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), G Suite, OneLogin, or Okta, you can set up SSO without assistance.
- Set up SSO for Microsoft Entra ID (OAuth).
- Set up SSO for G Suite (OAuth).
- Set up SSO for OneLogin (OAuth).
- Set up SSO for Okta (OAuth).
SAML 2.0
SAML 2.0 is an XML-based open-standard data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between identity providers and service providers.
If your company uses Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), G Suite, OneLogin, or Okta, you can set up SSO without assistance.
- Set up SSO for Microsoft Entra ID (SAML).
- Set up SSO for G Suite (SAML).
- Set up SSO for OneLogin (SAML).
- Set up SSO for Okta (SAML).
It is also possible to use SSO with other Identity Providers. Currently, Perk only offers support for those mentioned above.
