title: Single Sign-On (SSO)
description: "Sign in to both the Jamdesk dashboard and your docs sites using your existing identity provider. Available on Enterprise plans."

Jamdesk supports Single Sign-On for both the dashboard (where you manage projects) and your published docs sites (where your team reads internal documentation). SSO is available on **Enterprise plans**.

## What SSO covers

<Columns cols={2}>
  <Card title="Dashboard SSO" icon="gauge">
    Your team signs in to `dashboard.jamdesk.com` with your identity provider. Best fit when you want centralized account management, mandatory MFA via your IdP, and instant deprovisioning when a user leaves.
  </Card>
  <Card title="Docs site SSO" icon="book-open">
    Readers authenticate against your IdP before they can view protected docs. Replaces the shared password model with per-user sign-in, an audit trail, and deprovision-on-removal.
  </Card>
</Columns>

## Who it's for

- Companies with an existing identity provider (Okta, Google Workspace, Azure AD / Entra ID, Auth0, etc.).
- Teams that need an audit trail of who accessed which docs.
- Organizations where deprovisioning must be instant, so removing a user from the IdP immediately revokes their docs access.
- Anyone uncomfortable sharing a single passphrase across a large reader pool.

## How to enable it

SSO setup is hands-on. Every IdP is configured slightly differently, and we want to make sure your team's metadata, claim mappings, and group filters are right before flipping the gate.

The pricing page lists current plan tiers and the contact path for Enterprise. From there, our team will walk you through IdP configuration, test the integration on a staging subdomain, and roll it out to production when you're ready.
