GReminders offers a variety of Sign On options.

• Google Workspace / GMail Account
• Microsoft Account
• Username and Password (optional w/ 2FA)
• SAML (Your Enterprise Identity Provider such as Okta, OneLogin, etc…)

Note, that if your Google or Microsoft Account are using Okta or another IdP you can simple use the Microsoft or Google Login which will already proxy to Okta or similar.

If you want to setup SAML directly, this article is for you.

Getting it Setup

In your IdP provider, lets use Okta as an example, setup a new Application.

When asked for your SAML Sign On URL use:

https://app.greminders.com/saml2/acs

For Audience URI you can use “greminders” or any other unique value you like

For Application Username use Email.

Next you will need to download the Metadata XML file provided to you by your IdP. This is typically the Metadata URL. You may need to copy and paste it into your browser. Copy the output of the XML file into your clipboard

Next, within GReminders. Go to Setup > SAML

Click Create a new IdP

Here you need to give it a name (e.g. Okta) and then paste the copy of the XML file you have you in your clipboard:

The form will validate your XML, if its in valid it will tell you so.

Click Save.

Next go to Setup > Security and enable SAML as a login provider.

You are connected.

Now you can invite a NEW user under Setup > Users OR you can try to change your own Login Provider under Profile to SAML.

When this user logs in they should be offered the ability to login via your Okta or IdP you have configured.

That’s It.

Note, SAML is a “Enterprise” Level feature, and should used with a reasonable general understanding of how your corporate identity solution works and general concepts of SSO.
