About SSO with Smartcar

Our Dashboard supports SSO integrations with popular identity providers including:
  • Okta
  • Microsoft Azure AD
  • Google Workspace
  • OneLogin
  • Ping Identity
  • ADFS
  • Custom SAML 2.0 providers
To set up SSO for your organization’s Dashboard accounts, you’ll need to:
  1. Be an Owner for an existing Team on an Enterprise plan
  2. Verify your domain
  3. Configure your identity provider
The following section will guide you through each step of this process.

​
Setting up SSO

On Dashboard navigate to Team settings > Security and select Enable SSO
You’ll be redirected to start the SSO configuration process.
Depending on your DNS provider, you’ll receive instructions on how to verify your domain.
Once your domain is verified, you’ll be able to select your Identity Provider (IdP).
You’ll be provided a guide on how to get set up based on your IdP.
Once you’ve got everything configured, you’ll be prompted to test SSO.

If you exit the flow at any time before finalizing your configuration, you can jump back in from Dashboard.

​
Disabling SSO

If you have SSO configured, the Team Owner can disable it from Team settings > Security.
Disabling SSO will require you to go through the whole setup process again.

​
Inviting team members with SSO enabled

Once enabled, you’ll need to add members to your team through your identity provider. Invites via the Dashboard will be disabled while SSO is enabled.
When a newly added member has signed in via SSO, they will have the Viewer role by default. Other team members with the appropriate role can promote these members as needed.
If a user creates a Dashboard account with their email prior to being added to your IdP, they will be added to their own Team initially. When they are added to your IdP they will be able to switch Teams in Dashboard.

​
A note on aliased emails

If members of your team have Dashboard accounts using email aliases prior to enabling SSO e.g. rover+thebest@dog.com, once SSO is enabled for your Team and they’re added to your IdP, their login will be tied to their non-aliased email address e.g. rover@dog.com. SSO is only available on the Enterprise plan, please reach out to your Account Manager for more details.
