Single sign-on (SSO)

Single sign-on lets people prove who they are with a work account they already have, instead of a Formester password. One connection to a company's directory covers both uses below.

Available on: Enterprise.

Start here: connect a directory

Every use of SSO begins with a connection. Set one up, test it, and activate it.

• Set up single sign-on (SSO) with Microsoft Entra
• • Route 1: Formester's app, the shorter route, with nothing to register
  • Route 2: your own app registration, when your IT team owns the directory side
  • Rotating the secret
  • Troubleshooting the connection

Microsoft Entra is the directory Formester connects to today.

Then choose what the connection is for

One connection can do both at once.

Protect a form

Only that company's staff can open the form, and every response records who signed in. Respondents never get a Formester account.

• Single sign-on (SSO) for form respondents
• • Turn it on for a form
  • What your respondents see
  • Troubleshooting

Sign in to Formester

Your own team opens Formester with their work account, and you can require it for everyone in your organization.

• Single sign-on (SSO) for signing in to Formester
• • Choose the connection your team signs in with
  • Decide who gets an account
  • Require SSO for this organization
  • Troubleshooting
