Organization admins configure company sign-in in Settings → Organization → Authentication. You also need an administrator for your identity provider and access to verify your company domain. Setup must be enabled for your organization; if the page cannot provide setup or testing, contact your Atlan administrator.

Connect and test

  1. Open Authentication. Under Connect your identity provider, choose Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, or Another SAML or OpenID Connect provider to open hosted setup.
  2. Select and configure the provider in that portal. The choices in Atlan open the same portal; the provider is selected there. Keep the Atlan window open so you can return to it.
  3. Open Settings → Domains and verify a company domain. See Manage domains.
  4. Return to Authentication. Confirm that the connection is active and the domain is verified.
  5. Select Test sign-in. In the browser window, sign in through the connected provider using the same company account as your Atlan admin account.
  6. Return to Atlan and confirm that the test passed.
A successful test counts for 24 hours and applies to the configuration that was tested. Test again after provider changes or when the page asks you to. Connecting a provider alone does not change sign-in policy. The connected-provider card shows the current policy, provider readiness, verified company domain, and last sign-in test. In this example, Okta is active and the test passed, while Optional still allows Google sign-in and email codes alongside SSO.

Choose sign-in policy

Select the policy and review the confirmation. Optional and Required need an active connection, a verified domain, and a recent successful sign-in test. A policy that cannot be selected includes the reason in the page.
Changing sign-in policy applies to new sign-ins. It does not end existing sessions or revoke API credentials. Keep another administrator able to sign in before requiring SSO.

Repair sign-in

Use Manage provider to return to provider setup, then select Test again. An inactive connection does not automatically restore other sign-in methods. An administrator who is still signed in can repair the provider or select an available fallback policy. If no administrator can sign in, contact Atlan support. Some organizations require SSO and cannot enable fallback methods.

Review offboarding

The Offboarding section contains Disable a departing member’s API keys and OAuth clients. This policy applies when the identity service deprovisions a member: enabled disables their clients; disabled keeps them active and flags them for review. Registry membership departures also retire the service accounts that person registered when background cleanup runs. After removing a member, review the actual credential status. A policy setting or a person disappearing from the Members list does not confirm that every credential has finished cleanup.
