When the user logs on to Backblaze, Backblaze requests a credential from GSuite, and GSuite, because it accepts Okta or OneLogin's credentials, sends the requested authorization.

Although Backblaze does not accept Okta or OneLogin's credentials directly, Backblaze SSO does accept GSuite’s credential. A GSuite SSO domain accepts credentials from Okta or OneLogin. Therefore, an SSO credential that works with the providers above can also enable access to Backblaze.Īs an example, consider this situation: GSuite can accept SSO credentials from third parties. Popular options include Okta and OneLogin. These providers can also allow single sign-on, accepting a credential from another trusted provider. Backblaze Support for Single Sign-On Providersīackblaze currently allows users in the following authentication domains to use single sign-on. Instead of logging in with an effectively unique identity, many sites now permit logging on with a credential from a third party who vouches for that person’s identity. SSO has become a popular solution to maintain security for Admins while providing ease of use to end-users. Administrators often require complex, unique passwords, while users often struggle to manage their passwords for different services.
