How does Microsoft Single Sign-On Integrate with BambooHR?
Purpose: To help you understand what you can use Microsoft Single Sign-On for and how you can integrate it with BambooHR.
Microsoft Single Sign-On
An overview from BambooHR® Marketplace:
Enabling the Microsoft Single Sign-On app in your BambooHR account will make it easy for users to access their BambooHR account using their existing Microsoft account login.
You can learn more about Microsoft Single Sign-On in BambooHR® Marketplace.
Once in BambooHR, navigate to Settings and select Apps. Find Microsoft Single Sign-On and click Install.
Click Install. Once installed, all users in your account can immediately log in to BambooHR via their Microsoft authentication.
You will also see the option to "allow optional email & password login." This will give employees the option to log in through [OneLogin/Microsoft/SAML/etc] or type in their email and password. Please note that while this is an option, we recommend leaving this unchecked as installing a single sign-on option will disable the 2-Step Login in BambooHR.
The option of making SSO an optional authentication choice while still allowing username/password authentication gives our customers who are primarily looking to simplify login experience more flexibility in how they configure and use the SSO integration. For customers whose requirements focus on enhanced security, it is recommended that they use the SSO-only option for maximum security. Authentication security will always only be as strong as the weakest option permitted.
Users will see one of two screens when they log in to their BambooHR account. This is depending on if the "Allow optional email & password login" option was selected during setup. Clicking Log in with Email and Password will allow them to enter in their credentials manually.
If the "Allow optional email & password login" option was selected in the setup, users will also have the ability to change their password once logged into their BambooHR account.
When the user selects Log in with Microsoft, they will be able to select their Microsoft account and enter in their Microsoft password.
Users will then have the option to stay signed in. If they select Yes, they will automatically be signed in the next time they click Log in with Microsoft.
If you are an existing customer using this integration, please be aware that BambooHR supports this integration.
