SSO has long been the gold standard for managing permissions across applications for your entire organization. It creates a centralized place for you to manage who has access to which applications and make changes at scale, without having to log in to each account to make those updates.

Now, you can get that same secure and scalable permissioning with Wistia’s self-serve SAML SSO option.

How does it work?

No need to contact our Support Team or coordinate with your Account Manager - you can now configure SSO in a few easy steps directly from your account.

  1. Head to Settings in your account and scroll down to the SSO option on the lefthand navigation
  2. In the SSO Setup, paste in your metadata URL and click Configure SSO Provider*
  3. Then toggle on the option to Turn on SSO for all users to enable SSO for your team. Then you can toggle them option Require SSO - this will make SSO the only way for users to log in (owners will still have the option to log in with email and password).

*NOTE: if your account uses OIDC or SAML XML files, you will still need to contact Wistia to configure SSO

See how you can securely manage Wistia access for your whole team at scale, in just a few easy clicks.
