What SSO Enables
- Users sign in using your company’s identity provider
- Password management and MFA are handled by your IdP
- User access is centrally managed by your IT or security team
- Users sign in once with their corporate credentials
Supported Identity Providers
Chamelio works with identity providers that support SAML 2.0 or OIDC, including:- Okta
- Azure Active Directory (Entra ID)
Authentication Protocols
- SAML 2.0
- OpenID Connect (OIDC)
User Provisioning and Access
SSO controls authentication only. Authorization within Chamelio is managed separately - roles and permissions are configured within Chamelio regardless of how users authenticate. Users must exist in Chamelio (or be allowed via auto-provisioning) to access the platform after SSO authentication.Setup Process
SSO is configured through a self-serve flow initiated by the Chamelio team:1
Request an SSO setup link
Email support@chamelio.ai to request SSO setup. Chamelio generates and shares a secure configuration link.
2
Configure your identity provider
Your IT team uses the provided instructions to configure your IdP. For SAML, metadata or certificates are exchanged. For OIDC, client details are verified.
3
Test with a pilot user
Complete a login test with a pilot user before rolling out to the full team.
4
Enable SSO for your workspace
Once testing passes, SSO is enabled for your workspace.
Common Questions
Can SSO be enforced for all users?
Can SSO be enforced for all users?
Yes. Chamelio can require SSO for all users.
Is MFA supported?
Is MFA supported?
Yes. MFA is enforced through your identity provider, not Chamelio directly.
Can users still log in with email and password?
Can users still log in with email and password?
This depends on your workspace configuration. Password-based login can be disabled once SSO is fully rolled out.
Is SCIM supported for automated user provisioning?
Is SCIM supported for automated user provisioning?
SCIM availability depends on your plan and configuration. Where available, it can automatically create, update, and deactivate users in Chamelio when changes are made in your identity provider (some providers, such as Okta, can also push group assignments). See the provider-specific SCIM guides below, or contact support@chamelio.ai to discuss enabling it for your organization.
