Streamline Security with SAML/OIDC Configuration

Last updated on Jul 07, 2026

Overview

In today's digital landscape, ensuring secure and efficient user authentication is crucial for any organization. SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) and OIDC (OpenID Connect) are protocols that enhance security by enabling single sign-on (SSO) for users accessing Schedly. This integration reduces password fatigue and improves security by allowing users to authenticate through a central identity provider.

Prerequisites

  • You must be an Admin to configure SSO settings in Schedly.
  • Ensure your organization subscribes to the Pro Plan or Enterprise Plan, as these provide access to SAML/OIDC features.
  • Access to an external identity provider supporting SAML or OIDC.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Configuring SSO Settings

  1. Log in to Schedly: Navigate to the main Schedly login page.
  2. Access SSO Settings: Go to Settings > Organizations, select your organization, then navigate to Single Sign-On.
  3. Enable SAML/OIDC: Toggle the switch to enable the SAML or OIDC option you wish to configure.
  4. Enter Protocol Details: Enter the required fields such as Entity ID, SSO URL, and Public Certificate as provided by your identity provider.
  5. Save Configuration: Scroll down and click the blue Save button.

Integrating with External SSO Providers

  1. Navigate to the Login Page: Ensure you are on the main Schedly login page.
  2. Select SAML/OIDC Login: On the login page, click the option to sign in with SAML/OIDC.
  3. Authenticate with Provider: You will be redirected to your identity provider's login page. Enter your credentials there.
  4. Access Schedly: Upon successful authentication, you will be redirected back to Schedly.

SSO Setup

Key Details & Limits

  • Pro Plan: Access to SAML/OIDC with support for up to 50 team members.
  • Enterprise Plan: Offers custom integrations and unlimited team members.
  • Ensure all fields such as SSO URL and Entity ID are accurate to avoid authentication failures.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is the difference between SAML and OIDC? SAML is primarily used for enterprise SSO, whereas OIDC is a simpler identity layer on top of OAuth 2.0 for web-based apps.
  2. Can I use multiple identity providers with Schedly? Currently, Schedly supports one SAML or OIDC configuration per organization.
  3. What plans support SSO integration? SSO is available on Pro and Enterprise plans only.
  4. How do I troubleshoot a failed SSO login attempt? Ensure that your SSO URL and Entity ID match exactly with your identity provider details.
  5. Can I revert to standard password login after enabling SSO? Yes, navigate to Single Sign-On settings and disable SAML/OIDC to revert to standard login.

Troubleshooting

  • SSO Redirect Loop: Ensure that your identity provider settings are not misconfigured; double-check the SSO URL and Entity ID.
  • Authentication Failed: Verify that your public certificate is correctly uploaded and matches what the identity provider expects.
