Google Authentication (SSO) Setup

Enable secure sign-in and automatic user provisioning using Google authentication in Screenloop.

Screenloop supports Google-based authentication, allowing organisations to streamline login, improve security, and automatically provision user accounts.

Who Can Use This Feature?

  • Screenloop Admin users

  • Organisations using Google Workspace

Requirements

Before setting up Google authentication, ensure:

  • Your organisation uses Google Workspace (not personal Gmail accounts)

  • You have Admin access in Screenloop

  • You are able to approve authentication permissions during setup


Enable Google Authentication

To begin setup:

  • Go to Settings > Authentication

  • Select Google provider for automatic sign-up

This enables users in your Google Workspace domain to sign in using Google credentials.


Complete the Google Sign-In Flow

During setup:

  • You will be prompted to sign in with your Google account

  • Google will request permission to share basic organisational information with Screenloop

  • Approve the requested permissions to continue

Once completed, Google authentication will be enabled for your organisation.


Manage Authentication Settings

After setup, go to:

Settings > Authentication > Active authentication method > View

From here, you can manage:

  • Google authentication configuration

  • Organisation-level sign-in settings


Just-In-Time (JIT) Provisioning

You can enable Just-In-Time Provisioning, which allows:

  • New users to automatically create a Screenloop account on first login

  • No manual invite required from Admins

This is useful for scaling onboarding across large teams.

What Happens for Existing Users?

  • Existing users will automatically be linked to Google authentication

  • No account recreation or manual setup is required

  • Users can continue logging in without disruption


Things to Keep in Mind

  • Only Google Workspace domains are supported (not personal Gmail accounts)

  • Admin permissions are required to enable authentication

  • Changes apply organisation-wide once enabled

  • Ensure users are informed before switching authentication methods

Additional Tips

  • Enable Just-In-Time provisioning for faster onboarding

  • Use Google Workspace domain controls to manage access centrally

  • Combine with role-based permissions for tighter security governance
