The SAML SSO feature is a paid option that is not enabled by default. To activate it, contact your account manager or customer@spendesk.com.
Sign in Using Google Authentication
When you choose Google authentication, you gain the following benefits:
No need to worry about forgetting your password.
Connect to Spendesk in just two clicks.
Important:
If you created your account with Google authentication, you cannot log in using your email address and a password. This is because no password was ever created for your account.
To set up a password, sign in through Google first and then add a password to your profile.
Sign in Through Microsoft Connect
To sign in via Microsoft Connect:
On the login page, select "Continue with Microsoft".
Enter your Microsoft credentials in the pop-up window.
Proceed to sign in.
Benefit:
You can access your Spendesk account through your Office 365 account with a single click!
Log in with SAML SSO
If your company uses SAML SSO, the login method depends on whether Forced SAML is enabled:
When Forced SAML is Enabled
You can only log in via SAML SSO.
When Forced SAML is Not Enabled
You can log in via SAML SSO or another method (e.g., Google authentication, email, and password).
Requirements:
Your email address must match between Spendesk and your company’s identity provider.
