      How to Configure Single Sign-On (SSO) with Eventtia - OKTA

      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.
