Integrating with Single Sign On (SSO)

Kudos tries to make giving recognition and engaging employees as easy as possible, and our Single Sign On integration is a big part of making connecting simple. This document will discuss how to configure Kudos to work with an existing SAML-based SSO server, or any SAML-compliant service provider of your choice.

What You Need to Get Started:

• A properly configured Kudos Plus (or higher) account with Administrator privileges
• A SAML-based Identity Provider that can issue x.509 certificates
• Sign On URL (Identity Provider Endpoint)
• An engineer or administrator who is familiar with configuring an SSO server or service provider

Configuring Kudos to Use Your Existing Single Sign On:

1. Go to ⚙️ > Account > Integrations > SSO
2. Enter your Sign On URL (Identity Provider Endpoint)
3. Enter your x.509 certificate
4. Choose a logout URL (ie. where your users go after log out). Use your Kudos URL if you are using the SharePoint Integration.
5. Enter your Kudos URL (enter the subdomain only, see example below)
6. Click Save.
