📝 Overview
With Yoom’s Enterprise plans, you can enable SAML-based SSO (Single Sign-On) for enhanced security and simplified login management.
🧐 What is SAML Authentication?
SSO (Single Sign-On) allows users to log in to multiple services with a single authentication.
One common method for implementing SSO is SAML authentication, which securely shares user authentication details across multiple services.
The system that manages and verifies authentication is called an IDP (Identity Provider).
Yoom is not an IDP but functions as an SP (Service Provider) that integrates with IdPs.
👏 Benefits of SAML Authentication
✔ Simplified Login & Improved User Experience
No need to manage multiple IDs and passwords for different services.
✔ Enhanced Security
Reduces risk associated with password storage and sharing.
Minimizes the risk of credentials being compromised.
🙊 Potential Risks & Considerations
❌ Login Issues if IDP service is Down
If the IDP experiences downtime, users may be unable to log in.
❌ Security Risk if Credentials Are Compromised
If an ID/password is leaked, unauthorized users could gain access to all connected services.
📌 To strengthen security, we recommend enabling:
✔ Two-factor authentication (2FA)
✔ Two-channel authentication
🛠️ How to Set Up SAML Authentication
1️⃣ Configure your IdP (Identity Provider)
For IDP setup details, please refer to your provider's documentation.

2️⃣ Configure SAML in Yoom
Follow these steps to complete the setup:
① Log in to Yoom and click the settings button at the bottom left.
② In the side menu, select “Security”.
③ Enter the required configuration details to enable SAML Configuration.

Enable Just-In-Time Provisioning | Allows automatic account creation in Yoom when a user logs in for the first time. |
Restrict Login to SAML Only | Prevents users from logging in via OAuth or two-factor authentication - only SAML is allowed. |
