What is SSO?

Single Sign-On (SSO) is an account security feature which allows customers to mandate sign-in requirements and team member access to systems like the Noticeable Dashboard.

Specifically, Noticeable supports OpenID Connect (OIDC) and Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) version 2.0, allowing authentication and team member account creation to be deferred to your own Identity Provider (IdP). This includes Okta, OneLogin, Centrify, Ping Identify and more.

Benefits of SSO

Using SSO to authenticate to the Noticeable Dashboard has two main benefits:

Security Improvements

Allow team members to access the Dashboard without needing to create a password.
Leverage authentication decisions defined through an IdP, such as password policies and mandating two-factor authentication.

Easier Access Management

Allow new team members to instantly sign in to the Dashboard using Just-in-Time account provisioning.
Revoke Dashboard access, as needed.

Features and limitations

Noticeable supports:

Service Provider-initiated login - We do not support IdP-initiated login for now.
OIDC and SAML version 2.0 protocols.
Just-in-Time account creation - Provision new Noticeable accounts for team members without existing access, upon their first SSO sign-in.
Automatic projects and role assignation upon account creation - Configure whether new Noticeable accounts get access to existing projects and what role they should be assigned to.
Account deactivation/reactivation through System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM). Other SCIM provisioning operations are not implemented. Please note this feature is still in beta.
