Microsoft SSO Integration

Enable seamless and secure login to Sociuu using your organization’s Microsoft credentials.

What is Microsoft SSO in Sociuu?

Microsoft Single Sign-On (SSO) allows your employees to log into Sociuu using their existing company account from Microsoft Entra ID.

This means:

  • No additional passwords to manage

  • Stronger security (MFA, Conditional Access)

  • Faster and smoother login experience



Login Setup Options

When enabling Microsoft SSO, you can choose how it should be used in your organization:

1. Optional (Recommended for rollout)

  • Employees can choose between:

    • Microsoft SSO

    • Sociuu’s own login method (Magic Login)

  • Ideal for gradual adoption and flexibility

2. Required (Strict SSO enforcement)

  • Employees can only log in via Microsoft SSO

  • Ensures full alignment with internal IT/security policies

Tip: Many companies start with optional and later switch to required once adoption is stable.



Authentication Protocol (OIDC vs SAML)

Sociuu uses OpenID Connect (OIDC) as the authentication protocol.

Why this matters:

  • OIDC is the modern standard for web applications

  • Built on top of OAuth 2.0

  • More secure and developer-friendly than legacy approaches

While Microsoft Entra ID supports both SAML and OIDC:

“For new application development, we recommend using OpenID Connect (OIDC) for authentication.”

As a result:

  • SAML is not supported in Sociuu

  • OIDC ensures better security, scalability, and compatibility with modern systems

Security & Data Access

Your organization remains fully in control of access and security:

  • Supports Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

  • Works with Conditional Access policies

  • Uses secure token-based authentication (OIDC + OAuth 2.0)



IT Setup Overview (High-Level)

To enable Microsoft SSO:

  1. A Microsoft Entra admin initiates login via Sociuu

  2. Admin grants consent to the Sociuu application

  3. The app is automatically created in your Entra tenant

  4. Optional: apply internal access restrictions (groups, policies)
