# Single Sign-On with Google Worspace

#### Prerequisites

* **Updraft Account**: Owner access to your Updraft organization account.

## Step 1: Configure Google Workspace as Identity Provider

### **1.1 Access Google Admin Console**

* Sign in to the Google Admin console.
* Navigate to *Security* > *Set Up Single Sign-On (SSO)*.

### **1.2 Create a SAML Application**

* Click on *Add App* and select *Add Custom SAML App*.
* Enter a custom name for the application, such as "getupdraft".
* Optionally, add a custom logo.

### **1.3 Configure SAML Settings**

* **SSO URL**: Enter the SSO URL provided by Updraft, available from your Updraft account: <https://getupdraft.com/saml2\\_auth/acs/>
* **Entity ID**: Enter the Entity ID provided by Updraft: getupdraft
* **Certificate**: Download the .XML certificate and save it, as it will be needed later in Updraft.

### **1.4 Assign User Attributes**

* Configure the user attributes to be passed to Updraft, such as `email`, `first_name`, and `last_name`.
