Single Sign-On (SSO) for Auth0

The following guide helps account admins set up a Single sign-on connection for Auth0.

Prerequisites:​

To get started, you need the following privileges:

  • Access to Auth0
  • Permissions to create a new native application in Auth0
  • Owner role permissions for the account for which you are creating the Logz.io resource

Request SSO access from Logz.io​

note

Only account admins can request single sign-on access for their accounts. To access and use the SSO link that is created for a Logz.io Auth0 integration resource, users must be defined in the associated Auth0 account.

To kick off this process, send an email to help@logz.io. Write that you want to set up Auth0 SSO for Logz.io. Include these items in the message:

The Support Team will respond with the connection information you'll need to give in Auth0.

Click on Settings, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click Advance Settings. Next, click on the Certificate tab and download it in a PEM format. In the next step, you’ll need to email this file to the Logz.io Support Team.
