Key notes

Single sign-on (SSO) is a session and user authentication service that allows authorized users to enter one set of credentials, such as theusername and password.

The SSO feature allows you to access multiple applications without entering the username and password for each app.

However, sometimes you may encounter your browser not configured for the single sign-on option.

Up-to-date browsers generally offer easy and intuitive ways to set up a single sign-in, but some exceptions require a little more know-how.

In this article, we look at possible solutions to configure the single sign-on feature in your browser and other troubleshooting tips.

You’ll need toadjustthe device settings in your G Suite Admin Console to enable SSO capabilities on your organization’s Chromebooks.

You must navigate to the Device Management section and access Chrome Management before choosing User & Browser Settings.

The answer is that you can configure your Cloud Identity or Google Workspace account to use single sign-on (SSO).

Thus, when you enable SSO, users aren’t prompted to enter a password when they try to access Google services and are instead redirected to an external identity provider (IdP) to authenticate.

Quick Tip:

Try a modern and user-friendly browser that lets you quickly set it up as desired. For example, setting the SSO feature in Opera One is easy, and it enables you to access your favorite apps without asking for credentials every time.

The browser stores your passwords, credit card information, and other vital data. Don’t worry; it gets frequent security updates and includes a free, unlimited VPN that protects your data.

Contact the office administrator if you don’t have the required credentials or even the preferences value to enable the Single Sign-on feature on your PC.

Your administrator can help you better diagnose the issue and also help you fix it.

Why is SSO not working in Chrome?
