This article outlines the procedures required to limit user access via password logins, establishing Single Sign-On (SSO) as the exclusive method for logging in.
Ensure that the Single Sign-On (SSO) option is enabled #
On the main menu navigate to System page, then choose Integrations.
Within the Single Sign-On (SSO) tab, verify that the SSO configuration status is set to Enabled.
If it’s currently Disabled, you can activate it by clicking the three-dot menu and selecting Edit.
- Inside the dialog box, click on Status.
- Select Enabled.
- Save your changes by clicking the Save button.
In this article, you can review an example of how to set up SSO configuration with Okta.
Restrict login permissions for SSO #
Access the main menu and go to Users page, then select Roles and permissions.
Locate the specific role you wish to exclusively use Single Sign-On (SSO) for logins. For example, let’s consider the Student role.
Click the three-dot menu next to the chosen role and opt for Edit.
Scroll down to the permissions-Users section and deselect the checkbox next to Log in.
Apply the changes by clicking the “Update” button found at the bottom of the “Roles and permissions” tab.
Student’s perspective #
By following these steps and disabling the Log in permission, users associated with the chosen role will be prompted to use the Single Sign-On (SSO) option for logging in.
This method enhances security and user experience.
