Single Sign-On (SSO) Authentication with Google

Summary

In this article, you'll learn how to set up Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication with Custom Google Domain. The SSO can be implemented for both Web and Admin Portals.

Keep in mind that when you activate an SSO authentication, the following OfficeRnD Hybrid authentication services are disabled:

  • The standard login with an OfficeRnD Hybrid user and password.
  • The "Reset password" links in OfficeRnD Hybrid.
  • The token for authentication that employees receive when invited to the Members Portal.

Enable SSO with Google

1. Navigate to https://console.developers.google.com/?pli=1

2. Click Create Project.

16. Next, we need to set the Discovery URL on the OfficeRnD Hybrid side, in the SSO Authentication configuration. You can follow this article to get the Discovery URL or you can enter it manually:  https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

17. Enable Automatic Account Activation - With this setting enabled, employees that already exist in OfficeRnD Hybrid will be allowed to log into the Portals without needing to be explicitly invited. If this setting is disabled, employees without prior access to the Portals will need to have it Enabled by an administrator.

18. Click Update.

Admin Portal SSO

After you have configured the Web Portal SSO, you can add your Admin Portal SSO as well.

1. Click Configure on the SSO integration in Hybrid.

2. Click Activate Admin Portal SSO and the following fields will appear:
