SSO Documentation

Qualitia Automation Studio (QAS) now supports Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality, enabling users to authenticate seamlessly using their existing enterprise credentials. With SSO, users no longer need to manage multiple passwords, improving both convenience and security.

Key Benefits of SSO in QAS:

Simplified Access: Users can log in once with their organization’s identity provider and gain access to QAS without additional credentials.
Enhanced Security: Reduces password fatigue and minimizes security risks by centralizing authentication through secure identity providers.
Faster Onboarding: Streamlines the process for new users by integrating with existing identity management systems.

This feature is compatible with popular identity providers such as Okta, SAML, and Entra. SSO integration aligns Qualitia with modern enterprise authentication practices, ensuring ease of use and security.
