How to Setup SAML SSO with Accredible

SAML is a great addition to increase security and improve the user experience. Leverage the SAML open standard to streamline authentication for Team Members and End Users.

Note: SAML is an additional feature that is part of the Growth Plan.

Setup SAML

Please reach out to Accredible Support at support@accredible.com to start the process of configuring SAML SSO for your account.

Accredible offers SP-initiated SAML login for admins and team members on the Issuer Portal and for end users on the Recipient Portal.

The required information to start the process will include the IdP name, metadata XML, and any custom attribute for email address mapping.
