To enable Single Sign-on through Google Admin Console you need to have an existing configured application on Google Suite.

Create a new application for SSO in Google Suite

1. Go to your Google Admin Console and click Apps.

2. Select SAML apps.

3. Click Add App > Add custom SAML app.

4. Under Step 1 of the pop-up, fill in an app name and click Continue.

5. In Step 2, download the IDP metadata file under Option 1. Click Continue.

6. In Step 3 add the following values:

ACS URL: https://www.instahyre.com/saml2/acs/

Entity ID: https://www.instahyre.com/saml2/metadata/

Select the box for Signed Response

Name ID: Basic Information > Primary Email

Name ID Format: EMAIL

7. Under Step 4 click Add mapping and enter the following details:

"email -Basic Information - Primary Email" and click finish.

8. Go to the new SAML App's overview and open the User access settings.

9. Set the SAML App for Instahyre as ON for everyone and Save the choice.

10. Log into Instahyre and go to Integrations > Single Sign On from your admin account.

After the metadata file is uploaded, SSO will be enabled.

You can invite users and manage permissions/user settings from your Identity provider.

Controlling Login Methods for Your Team

If your organization uses Single Sign-On (SSO), you can now choose whether team members can log in using non-SSO methods.

How it works:

By default, after enabling SSO, recruiters will be able to log in via any method (SSO/password/social).

However, if non-SSO login is disabled, then they will only be able to log in via SSO only.

Where to find it:

Admins can disable non-SSO login on the SSO Integration page.

Who can use this:

This feature is available for admins of any employer who has enabled SSO.
