Single Sign-On (SSO) lets you access the Eventtia back office with your company credentials, simplifying and securing access without the need for a separate password. Follow this guide to set up SSO with our technical team.
Note: SSO is an add-on feature to your Eventtia license. If it’s not part of your initial contract, please contact your Customer Success Manager for further details.
What is Single Sign-On or SSO?
Single Sign-On (SSO) is an authentication method that allows access to multiple applications using a single set of credentials (e.g., your company login). Once logged in, you won’t need to re-enter your credentials to access Eventtia, making access more streamlined and secure.
Benefits of SSO on Eventtia
SSO simplifies and secures access to Eventtia for your team. By following these steps and collaborating with our technical team, you can easily enable SSO and enjoy seamless, secure access for your entire organization.
Steps to Set Up SSO with Eventtia
1. Verify Compatibility with Your Identity Management System
Before you start, ensure your company uses an identity management system (e.g., Azure AD, Okta, or Google Workspace) that supports SAML 2.0, the protocol used for SSO on Eventtia.
2. Contact Our Technical Team

4. Connection Testing
