You can use Clever single sign-on (SSO) to enable your users to be securely authenticated into ScreenPal from their Clever Portal. 

Before you begin

If you require SAML login for your users, you will first need to configure ScreenPal SAML authentication.  For more information about how to do this, please see our knowledge base articles for Google Workspace SAML integrationSAML login using Microsoft Entra, or setting up ScreenPal with ADFS SSO.

Additionally, you'll need to set up a Team Feature Access page from Settings > Team Feature Access, with SAML Login selected as the Security Option.  For more details about how to do this, please see our article titled Team Admin: Feature Access Settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are first and last names required to set up SAML authentication with ScreenPal? Can we just use the Name ID?
A: First and Last Name are required, as SAML requires setting up a user within the ScreenPal system.

Q: How do I get the First and Last Name (or the Given Name and Surname) to autopopulate?
A: If a user's name is not automatically populating as expected,  you need to ensure that SAML claims sent by Microsoft Entra are using the correct attributes for the account identifier.  More information about these attributes and the order in which ScreenPal processes them can be found in our article titled Configure SAML to resolve unexpected name display

Q: How often are user credentials revalidated?
A: SAML enabled, users will be required to log in again after one month of usage.
