SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is an authentication standard that lets users sign in to multiple applications using a single set of credentials. This simplifies access management and eliminates the need to maintain separate usernames and passwords for services such as JustLogin, CRMs, and other business platforms.
This guide is divided into three parts. Complete all parts in order for SSO to work seamlessly with your JustLogin account.
Note: Microsoft Entra is the new name for Microsoft's suite of identity and network access solutions, previously known as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). The two terms are used interchangeably throughout this guide. |
Key Terms
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Identity Provider (IdP) | The service that stores and authenticates user credentials, then passes data to the Service Provider. Example: Microsoft Entra (Azure AD). |
| Service Provider (SP) | The application used to perform work-related tasks. Examples: JustLogin, Salesforce, QuickBooks Online, Dropbox. |
Pre-requisites
- A Microsoft Entra user account with an active subscription.
- Your JustLogin usernames must exactly match the email addresses of the corresponding Microsoft accounts. This is the unique identifier recognised by the system. If you need to update usernames and are unable to do so, contact support@justlogin.com.
