Single Sign On Configuration

Single Sign On (SSO), available as a separate addon, allows your shop users to log in using their existing accounts on other platforms.

SSO is available to all customer employees, all sales representatives and even B2C customers in your shop once configured.

Addon Configuration - Admin

Make sure the addon is activated:

Head to the "Single Sign-On settings" in the B2Bsellers Plugin.

On this view, you are able to view all existing provider configurations, manage them and create new configurations for additional providers.

You are required to provide all text field inputs in the modal that opens after you click "add provider".

  • Name

  • Active

    • Whether the SSO option should be shown to users on the login page

  • Type

    • We currently provide Auth0 only.

  • Domain

    • The domain to authentificate against

  • Client ID

    • The domain's client ID

  • Client secret

    • This is the URL that are needed for the Auth0 application.

Login Example

FAQ

  • How long does the session persist?

    • The login session inside the shop persists for as long as the session exists on the SSO provider's end. No repeated shop login is required during that period.

  • Can you create new accounts using SSO login?

    • No, you cannot sign up new accounts using SSO. Only logging into existing accounts with matching emails is possible.

    • If a user tries to log in using SSO where the email is not yet associated with any created account, an error message will be shown.

  • Does the SSO login make logging in with a password impossible?

    • Using SSO doesn't void the password login: The user can still log in using their credentials instead of using SSO.
