Single Sign-On (SSO) enables a user to sign in once with a user ID and password to a group of related systems,
avoiding multi-login requirements from end-users.

**Note:**

When Sisense is configured to use SSO, the reset password and user invitation emails are disabled for all users except admin users. The basic login process can still be used in parallel with SSO.

Single Sign-On enables you to use your in-house technology or an Identity Provider. An Identity Provider issues
a secure token to identify yourself when signing in to Sisense.

## Single Sign-On Options

To integrate between the Identity Provider Site (with SSO capability) and Sisense, use one of the following
protocols:

- [SSO Using JWT](https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/single-sign-on-using-json-web-token.md)
- [SSO Using SAML 2.0](https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/single-sign-on-using-security-assertion-markup-language-20.md)
- [SSO Using OpenID Connect](https://docs.sisense.com/main/SisenseLinux/single-sign-on-using-openid-connect.md)

## Selecting an Identity Protocol
