# How to Set Up Single Sign-On (SSO)

Enable Single Sign-On (SSO) to allow your team to securely access IsDown using your organization's identity provider (IdP). This guide will walk you through the setup process.

{% hint style="info" %}
SSO is available only on **Business** and **Enterprise** plans.
{% endhint %}

Start by creating a SAML 2.0 application in your IdP. Choose from our step-by-step guides:

* [Okta – Full Guide](https://help.isdown.app/accounts/setup-admin-sso/okta)
* [Azure AD – Full Guide](https://help.isdown.app/accounts/setup-admin-sso/azure-ad)
* [Google SSO – Full Guide](https://help.isdown.app/accounts/setup-admin-sso/google-sso)

Using a different provider? Contact our [support team.](https://isdown.app/help)

Once your SSO app is created, follow these steps:

1. **Log in** to your IsDown account.
2. Go to **Account Settings** in the sidebar.<br>

4. Fill in the required fields:

* **Domain**: The domain your users will log in with (e.g., for `nuno@yourcompany.com`, enter `yourcompany.com`).
* **Identity Provider**: Copy the value of the Reply URL / SSO URL\
  \&#xNAN;*Example URL:* `https://isdown.app/users/auth/saml/{UUID}/callback`
* **Issuer / Entity ID**: Usually `isdown` if you followed our default setup.
* **IDP Certificate**: Paste the entire certificate text (including `BEGIN CERTIFICATE` and `END CERTIFICATE`). Or, extract the value of `X509Certificate` from your metadata XML file.
* **IDP Sign-In URL**: Find the `Location` value in the `SingleSignOnService` tag in your metadata XML.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.isdown.app/accounts/how-to-set-up-single-sign-on-sso.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
