Overview

Supernova uses Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), which is an open standard used for securely exchanging data. Single sign-on (SSO) utilizes this standard for securely logging into applications.

With SSO, your team members will log in to the workspace with the specific identity provider used by your organization. Supernova acts as the service provider, and never stores or manages any credentials.

The process for configuring SSO depends on your specific identity provider. Contact us to enable SSO in your Company workspace and note the following information we will request from you.

 

What information you'll need to provide:

• metadata.xml that contains all of the information described above, OR
• Sign in URL the X509 signing certificate and an optional sign out URL
