Google SSO

What it’s about

Single sign-on (SSO) is an access management function that enables users to log in with a single set of identity credentials to multiple accounts, software, systems, and resources.

XCALLY gives its users the possibility to access XCALLY using Google credentials (gmail and password).
For agents, SSO feature is available only for WebRTC Agents (and not for Phonebar Agents)

 

How to set up

XCALLY Configuration

 

Please check in the General Settings the Single Sign-On property has been turned on:

  • From General Setting Menu, access the SSO section

  • Enable Google SSO

  • In order to make the Google SSO work, XCALLY users (agents, users, admin) must login to Google with the same GMAIL configured in the XCALLY Staff Settings.
