When the SSO is setup, the default login flow is replaced by an SSO login flow. Users then log in with their organization account, such as an Office 365 or Google account. They will continue to do this from https://app.dialog.nl/account/login, but will be forwarded to the SSO login after filling in the email address field. After successful login in the SSO environment, the user is redirected back to Dialog.
Once Single Sign-On (SSO) has been set up for your organisation, the way your employees log in to Dialog changes. The standard login flow is replaced by an SSO login flow: employees log in with their organisation account, such as their Office 365 or Google account.
What changes when you log in?
From that point on, logging in goes through your own organisation's environment:
- Go to the Dialog login page: app.dialog.nl/account/login
- Enter your email address
- You are redirected to your organisation's login page (the SSO environment)
- After a successful login, you are automatically redirected back to Dialog
What stays the same?
The login page itself does not change: employees still start at app.dialog.nl/account/login. Only the way of logging in changes. Employees no longer log in with a separate Dialog password, but through your organisation account.
What does this mean for you as an administrator?
SSO is an organisation-level setting: once SSO has been set up, the new way of logging in applies to your employees. The redirect to your own environment happens automatically.
Let your employees know that from now on they log in with their organisation account (for example, their Office 365 or Google account) and that the Dialog login page stays the same.
A few questions come up regularly around SSO, for example about two-factor authentication, inviting new users, and changing a name, email address or password. You will find the answers in the related articles below.
