Sign-In Providers Getting Started

Sign-In Providers let administrators configure how users sign in to Qualytics directly from the platform, without deployment-level setup. From Settings > Access, you can set up and manage multiple sign-in providers (OIDC and SAML identity providers, plus email and password sign-in), invite new users, review requests to link a new sign-in identity to an existing account, and audit sign-in activity.

The sign-in page shows one button for each enabled provider, so users pick how they authenticate.

Permissions

Only users with the Admin role see the Providers, Link approvals, Invitations, and Log tabs on the Access settings page. See the Permissions page for details.

Existing deployments

Existing deployments keep their current sign-in method until the new authentication mode is enabled for them. Providers can be configured and verified in advance; they take over sign-in only after the switch. See How It Works for details.
