Google SSO Setup

Superblocks single sign-on (SSO) with Google Workspace lets your team seamlessly authenticate and access Superblocks using their Google credentials. This guide walks through how to configure single sign-on for Superblocks.

Prerequisites

To setup SSO for your organization, you'll need:

• A Google Workspace account
• Google Workspace administration access
• A Superblocks organization on the Enterprise plan

Setup Google Workspace

Set up single sign-on for Google by creating either a SAML or OIDC application. For full details, see Google's guides for how to:

• Create a custom SAML app
• Set up OAuth 2.0 (OIDC)

info

For the fastest setup and seamless integration with Superblock's Sign-in with Google experience, create an OAuth2.0 app.

If you plan on using SCIM for user provisioning and group management, create a SAML app. Learn more about Managing users and groups with SCIM.
