SSO integration that survives an enterprise security review
Enterprise buyers do not ask whether you support SSO; they ask for the metadata URL and then send a security questionnaire. Getting a login redirect working is a day. Getting group-to-role mapping, just-in-time provisioning, session revocation and audit logging right is the part that clears procurement. We implement SSO as an identity architecture rather than a login button, so the deal is not held up by a checkbox you half-answered.

- OpenID Connect
- OAuth 2.0
- SCIM 2.0
- Okta
- Microsoft Entra ID
What usually brings people here
- 01
Deprovisioning does not revoke anything
An employee is removed from the identity provider and still holds a valid session token for the next thirty days. IT believes access is gone. It is not, and the security questionnaire asks about exactly this.
- 02
Everyone lands with admin rights
No mapping from directory groups to application roles, so provisioning is a manual step someone skips. New joiners get whatever the default is, which is usually too much.
- 03
Signature validation is loose
The SAML response is parsed before the signature is verified, or the assertion audience is not checked. Both turn SSO into an authentication bypass rather than a control.
- 04
Each customer takes a fortnight to onboard
Configuration is hard-coded per tenant, so every new enterprise customer becomes an engineering ticket instead of something their IT admin can set up themselves.
- SAML 2.0 and OpenID Connect service provider
- Identity provider metadata and setup guide
- Directory group to application role mapping
- Just-in-time user provisioning on first login
- SCIM 2.0 provisioning and deprovisioning
- Session revocation and forced re-authentication
- Self-serve SSO configuration per tenant
- Authentication audit log with source IP and IdP
From first call to steady state
- 01
Decide the protocol and the trust model
OIDC where you have the choice, SAML because the enterprise buyer requires it. We also settle whether SSO is optional or enforced per tenant, since that changes the whole account model.
- 02
Map identity to authorisation
Directory groups mapped to roles, with a defined fallback for users who belong to none. Authentication tells you who someone is; this step decides what they may do.
- 03
Build revocation before launch
Short-lived sessions with refresh checked against the provider, plus SCIM deactivation. If removing a user from the directory does not end their access promptly, the integration is not finished.
- 04
Make it self-serve and test against real IdPs
Verified against Okta, Entra ID and Google Workspace, with an admin screen so a customer's IT team can configure it without contacting you.
Benefits & business outcomes
What changes when this work is done properly — not activity metrics, business results.
- 01
Enterprise procurement unblocked
SAML and OIDC with metadata, group-to-role mapping and audit logging — the checklist items buyers actually verify.
- 02
Access revoked when people leave
SCIM deprovisioning that disables accounts when IdP says so — not orphaned logins months after offboarding.
- 03
Just-in-time provisioning that matches roles
First login creates the right workspace membership from IdP groups, so IT is not manually seeding every new hire.
- 04
Session and revoke behaviour defined
Logout, idle timeout and forced revoke documented — security questionnaires get precise answers instead of hand-waving.

Why choose BuildsInfinity
Practical reasons teams choose BuildsInfinity for sso integration services — grounded in how we actually work, not a slogan list.
- 01
SSO as identity architecture, not a button
Login redirect is a day; mapping, provisioning and audit are what clear security review. We build the latter.
- 02
Works with Okta, Azure AD, Google and more
Standards-first SAML/OIDC so you are not locked to one IdP's proprietary flow.
- 03
Questionnaire-ready documentation
Deliverables include the answers procurement asks — so engineering is not re-explaining SSO under deadline pressure.
