Automatic login to the Office Plugin with SSO
Introduction
This document explains how your users can automatically log in with the Office Plugin with Single Sign-On (SSO).
Administrators can set up automatic login with SSO. This ensures that users do not need to log in manually to Zivver via the Login button in the Zivver toolbar. With automatic login with Single Sign-On enabled, the login session is automatically prolonged after 30 days if the user is still active. You can activate this feature by setting an additional registry key.
Conditions
- You have set up Single Sign-On SSO for your organization.

Your Identity Provider does not require a manual action to log in.
If your Identity Provider requires the user to enter a second authentication factor or manually initiate a log in, it is not possible to enable automatic login to Zivver.
