Single Sign-On (SSO) lets learners log in to Form LMS using their existing organisation credentials, removing the need for a separate username and password after the initial setup.
✅ Before you start: Contact your account manager to purchase and activate SSO. A Me Learning administrator will enable it on your site.
Form LMS supports one or more instances of a SAML 2.0 compliant SSO module. Each instance can connect to a different Identity Provider such as Google Workspace or Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).
Setting up SSO
Once the SSO module has been added to your site, setup follows three stages:
- Me Learning shares the data you need for your configuration.
-
You set up the connection in your Identity Provider. See the guides below for help:
- You share the metadata from your Identity Provider with Me Learning, and the setup is completed for you.
SSO and 2FA/MFA
Learners can use either SSO or Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to log in. These two methods cannot be combined for the same user at the same time. If both are active, SSO takes priority and 2FA/MFA is skipped.
If a learner uses SSO:
- Form redirects them to their organisation's authentication system after validating their email.
- The organisation's security rules and settings apply.
- Any login settings configured in Form (such as 2FA/MFA) are ignored.
SSO is not enforced. Users can always log in with their email and password. This means your organisation can use SSO for users within its network and standard authentication with 2FA/MFA for those outside it.
