Generic guide for configuring SAML Providers.
Introduction
Don’t you hate remembering all of your passwords? With OpsLevel’s Single Sign-On integration all of your microservice data is seconds away without the need for another long and secure password.
With single sign-on, you get:
- Automatic user provisioning: OpsLevel will create a user for you as long as the employee has access to the OpsLevel application in your identity provider.
- Revoke user access: Removing a user’s access from OpsLevel is as simple as revoking their access in your identity provider.

Basic SAML Configuration
