Introduction

Zivver supports Single Sign-On (SSO) via Okta, so that users can login to Zivver with the login data of their workplace. This manual explains how, as an administrator, you set up SSO.
SSO operates on the basis of Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) v2.0. Okta is the Identity Provider (IdP) and Zivver is the Service Provider (SP).
To activate SSO in Zivver, this is necessary:

1. You are a Zivver administrator.
   
2. You have access to Management functionality in Okta.
   example URL: https://[organization]-admin.okta.com/admin/dashboard

3. Go to people_outline User administration.
4. Go to Single Sign-on.

Zivver 2FA exemption (optional)

A Zivver account is protected, by default, with an additional login method (2FA). 2FA is also required when logging in via SSO. It is possible to disable Zivver’s 2FA when users log in via Okta’s SSO.

Unfortunately, Okta can not indicate in the SAML response whether the user has already specified an additional login method. Okta always gives this SAML response:

urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:ac:classes:PasswordProtectedTransport

This means that the SAML response does not contain any information that Zivver can derive from whether the user is logged in securely with 2FA. Therefore read the warning below carefully.

Do these steps to set the 2FA exemption for Okta in Zivver:

1. Log in to the WebApp.
2. Click the room_preferences Organization Settings icon at the bottom left of your browser window.
3. Go to people_outline User administration.
4. Go to Single Sign-on.
5. Scroll down to the Zivver 2FA exemptions card.
6. In the Authentication methods to be exempted field, enter these value:
   • urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:ac:classes:PasswordProtectedTransport.
7. Click Save.
   You have now successfully set a 2FA exemption for Okta. When users now log in via SSO, Zivver will not ask for 2FA.

Log in to the WebApp with SSO

1. Go to the WebApp.
2. Enter your e-mail address.
3. What is your role in Zivver?
   • User: you are immediately redirected to the login screen of your organization.
   • Administrator: you choose between your Zivver password and your workplace login details to log in.
4. Log in with the workplace login data of your organization.
   Depending on the existence of a 2FA exemption you will be asked for an extra login method. With a 2FA exemption in place, the last step will be skipped.
