What Is SAML?
SAML is an important security standard that allows Taskade users to log in securely without having to remember and manage multiple passwords. SAML can be set up with Okta, Google Workspace, Azure, and other identity providers. Follow the instructions below to configure SAML via Google Workspace.
💡 Note: If your team is already using Taskade, your identity provider will take ownership of those accounts. Please inform your team before enabling SAML.
Configure with Google Workspace
Requirements
The main account must be set up with a company email address.
Personal email accounts are not allowed.
Your email must be verified.
This feature is only available on our Ultimate and Enterprise plans.
Google Workspace Setup
Go to the Google Workspace admin dashboard. In the sidebar, select "Web and mobile apps" under Apps. Click "Add app", then "Add custom SAML app".
Enter "Taskade" under App name and upload a logo (optional).
Click "Next" to continue.
Save the SSO URL, Entity ID, and Certificate to a file somewhere. You'll need this information for Taskade setup. Click "Continue".
On the next screen, enter the following information:
Entity ID: https://www.taskade.com/saml/sso/metadata
Name ID Format: Email
Name ID: "Basic Information Primary email"
Click "Continue".
Under "Google Directory attributes", select "Primary email" and "email" for "App attributes".
Click the arrow in the "User access" section to open a drop-down menu.
Choose "ON for everyone" in your Google Workspace Dashboard to enable SSO for all users. Click "Save" to confirm the changes.
That concludes Google Workspace setup. Let's finish the process in Taskade.
Taskade Setup
💡 Note: Read the requirements before completing the steps below.
