Automatic login to the Office Plugin with SSO

Introduction

How can your users 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. You can activate this feature by setting an additional registry key.

Requirements

  • Your organization uses Single Sign-On.
    Check if your organization uses SSO
  • The account logged in to Outlook has a Zivver account.
  • Your Identity Provider does not require a manual action for the user to log in.
    Examples of manual actions would be to enter a password or submit a second authentication factor on login.

Activate automatic login

The registry keys below will automatically try to log users in to Zivver when working with email in Outlook (AutoEnableSsoAccounts) and will automatically try to log the user in to Zivver when the current logged in session is about to expire (TryAutoReloginSso). Please find more recommended Office plugin settings in the Office plugin installation manual.

Key Type Name Value
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Zivver\OfficePlugin\Settings DWORD AutoEnableSsoAccounts 1
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Zivver\OfficePlugin\Settings DWORD TryAutoReloginSso 1

Disable automatic login

Change the values of the settings to 0 to disable these settings. Apply these changes before removing the registry settings to ensure they are disabled.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Zivver\OfficePlugin\Settings DWORD AutoEnableSsoAccounts 0
