Single Sign On
Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication scheme that allows a WEGnology user to log in to the WEGnology Platform using a identity provider like Azure Active Directory. SSO enables WEGnology Enterprise customers to seamlessly onboard new WEGnology users by leveraging existing authentication systems.
The SSO discussed in this document is specific to the WEGnology Platform, not Experiences created with WEGnology. However, SSO can be built into an Experience, which is discussed below. To enable SSO for your Organization, contact us.
How it Works
When logging into WEGnology, you must provide an email address. If the given email address has SSO configured, WEGnology will reach out to your authentication service to validate and properly authenticate the user into WEGnology.
What WEGnology Supports
WEGnology supports Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) identity providers. SAML is an open standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider. If your identity provider supports SAML, then it can be configured with WEGnology’s SSO capabilities.
Experiences
Since Experiences allow you to develop and publish completely custom APIs and user interfaces with built-in user management and authentication, each Experience has its own set of Users, Groups, and Domains. The SSO of Experience Users must be handled using one or more Experience Workflows. To enable SSO integration with experiences, the following Workflow Nodes are available:
