1. Introduction

Microsoft Entra (formerly Azure Active Directory) is a secure identity and access management solution that helps organizations manage user authentication and access across applications. Admins can integrate Microsoft Entra with Engagedly to enable single sign-on (SSO), allowing users to sign in to Engagedly using their organizational credentials.

This integration helps admins enable single sign-on (SSO), centralize authentication, improve security, reduce password-related issues, and simplify user management.

For more information about SSO integrations, refer to the Overview of integrations.
