SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) with Okta ENTERPRISE

Enterprise feature

Single Sign-On is available on our Enterprise plan. If you'd like to learn more about the Enterprise plan, please contact us.

To set up Single Sign-On with Okta, you'll need administrator access to your Okta organization.

1. Prepare Ybug for SSO configuration

1.1 Before you can set up the Okta application, open the Single Sign-On settings page in Ybug. Go to your Team account settings page, click the Single Sign-On tab and check the Enable Single Sign-On checkbox. Leave this window open — you'll need this information to complete the configuration of the Ybug app in Okta.

Final steps

After successfully setting up SSO, your users should be able to sign in or sign up using your Identity Provider.

  • Team members (not owners) with an existing Ybug account using the same email address as their SSO account will be switched to SSO authentication after their first SSO login.
  • For users without a Ybug account yet, a new Ybug account is provisioned the first time they log in (from their Identity Provider).
