Log in faster and more securely with Single Sign-On

Updated over a week ago

What is Single Sign-On (SSO)?

With Single Sign-On (SSO), employees can sign in to HoorayHR with their work account from Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra ID. They no longer need to remember a separate username and password, which makes signing in faster and easier.

How does SSO work in HoorayHR?

When SSO is enabled:

  • Employees sign in via Google or Microsoft

  • The email address in HoorayHR must exactly match the Google or Microsoft account

  • If an account with that email address exists, the employee gets access straight away

Activate SSO

You can set up SSO via Company settings > Security. You can enable SSO and also make it mandatory for part or all of the organisation.

Make SSO mandatory

When SSO is mandatory:

  • Signing in with a username and password is no longer possible

  • Employees can no longer change their login email address

  • If the Google or Microsoft account is deactivated, the employee can no longer sign in to HoorayHR

You can limit the requirement to specific email domains, e.g. @hoorayhr.io. That way, employees with a personal email address can still sign in in the usual way.
