Single sign-on (SSO)

This document is for organization administrators. It describes how to configure Hypar authentication to use your company’s login system.

Google Workspaces

No configuration is needed if your organization uses Google for authentication. Just instruct your users to click “Continue with Google” on the Hypar sign-in page.

SAML on Azure

SAML setup involves your organization registering Hypar login on your side, and then giving the Hypar team the necessary information to enable your SSO provider.
💡
SAML login requires an enterprise contract with Hypar.

  • Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL): https://auth.hypar.io/saml2/idpresponse
  • Add a Group Claim for Groups assigned to the application, and set Source attribute to Group ID
