System Administrator Configuration GuideWhen SSO is enabled for your organization, if your users are already authenticated and signed in using your identity provider (IDP), they do not need to sign in again to access the

If a user is not signed in, they are redirected to their organization's customer IDP login when they attempt to sign in. This IDP is managed by your organization or by a third party vendor that provides IDP services. The IDP authenticates the user. The user is then redirected to
