Short.io supports Okta, AWS SSO, PingFederate, Onelogin, ADFS, and other SAML-compatible providers to configure SSO.

Note: SSO is available on the Enterprise Plan.

Team owner needs to be assigned in Okta.

How to Set up SSO via Okta

1. Go to Short.io.

2. Open User Menu > Teams.

3. Click Setup SSO.

4. Add the name of your company to the Connection Identifier/SAML 2.0 endpoint - your team members will use this value to log in to Short.io via SSO.

5. Go to your Okta account.

6. Open Admin.

7. Choose Applications > Applications.

8. Click Create App Integration

9. Select SAML 2.0 & press Next

10. Choose the application name and click Next.

11. Paste URLs: https://authorizer.short.io/auth/saml/your_connection_identifier to the "Single sign-on URL" and your connection identifier to the "Service Provider Entity Id" fields > Done

12. Scroll down and press Next, on the next page press Finish

13. Select the Sign On tab and click "View Setup Instructions".

14. Copy the Identity Provider Single Sign-On URL and paste it to the Short.io field named "Service Provider Issuer" under the Advanced options dropdown.
