Screenloop supports SAML2 authentication through Azure Active Directory, allowing your organisation to centralise access management and simplify onboarding for users.
Who can use this?
Screenloop Admin users
Organisations using Azure Active Directory (Entra ID)
Before you begin
Make sure you have:
Admin access in Screenloop
Admin access to Azure Portal
Permission to create Enterprise Applications in Azure
Enable SAML2 Authentication in Screenloop
Go to Settings > Authentication
Select SAML2 provider for automatic sign-up
This allows users in your organisation to authenticate through Azure AD.
Create an Enterprise Application in Azure
In Azure Portal:
Navigate to Enterprise Applications
Click New Application
Select Create your own application
Enter the application name: Screenloop
Choose:
Integrate any other application you don't find in the gallery (Non-gallery)
Microsoft may take up to 2 minutes to create the application.
Configure Users and Groups
Inside the new application:
Assign the users and/or groups who should access Screenloop
Configure Single Sign-On (SAML)
Open Single Sign-On
Select SAML
Basic SAML Configuration
Click Edit and enter:
Identifier (Entity ID)
https://app.screenloop.com/auth/saml/metadata
Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL)
https://app.screenloop.com/auth/saml/auth

Download Federation Metadata XML
Download the Federation Metadata XML file from Azure
This file will be uploaded into Screenloop
Configure SSO in Screenloop
In Screenloop:
Go to Settings > Authentication
Open SSO via SAML2
Click Upload File
Upload the Federation Metadata XML file
Enable Just-In-Time Provisioning
After uploading the XML file:
Enable Just In Time Provisioning
This automatically creates user accounts when users sign in for the first time using SSO.
This reduces manual onboarding work for Admins.
Test the Integration
Back in Azure Portal:
Open the Screenloop Enterprise Application
Click Test
Select Test Single Sign-On with Screenloop
If login succeeds, the integration has been configured correctly.
Existing Users
Existing Screenloop users will automatically authenticate using Azure AD once enabled.
No new account creation or migration is required.
Important Notes
Incorrect Entity ID or Reply URL will prevent login from working
Admin permissions are required in both Azure and Screenloop
Users must be assigned to the Enterprise Application in Azure
JIT provisioning automatically creates accounts for first-time users
Recommended Best Practices
Use Azure groups to manage Screenloop access at scale
Test with a small pilot group before organisation-wide rollout
Keep your metadata XML updated if Azure certificates rotate
Enable JIT provisioning to streamline onboarding
