# Authentication & SSO

Scanner supports multiple SSO integration methods, including:

* Okta OIDC
* Okta SAML
* Google Workspace SAML
* Microsoft Entra OIDC
* Microsoft Entra SAML
* Most other SAML and OIDC providers

Your preferred SSO integration is likely supported, even if not specifically covered in this documentation.

## Setting up SSO

Before configuring SSO, contact the Scanner support team to enable SSO configuration permissions for your account.

Once permissions are configured:

1. In Scanner, navigate to **Settings** > **SSO**.
2. Click **New connection**.
3. Enter a name for your connection and select your identity provider.
4. Click **Create**.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup in your identity provider.

Scanner uses **Stytch** for authentication. For more information on Stytch's SSO capabilities, see the [Stytch SSO documentation](https://stytch.com/docs/multi-tenant-auth/authentication/sso/provider-setup).

If you encounter any issues during setup, contact the Scanner support team for assistance.
