Enable Single Sign-On

In order to complete these steps, you must:

• Be an Ambition Admin
• Have an active, publicly accessible, SAML 2.0-enabled Identity Provider (IdP) service

Benefits of Single Sign-On:

• Users authenticate into Ambition using company-managed credentials
• Users already signed into company network will automatically be signed into Ambition
• Ambition access will automatically be revoked once employees are removed from company-defined HRMS system
