SSO - Add SAML authentication support
Implementing SAML for authentication to allow businesses to manage the identities themselves such as businesses that connect their identity provider to LDAP
Purpose: Allow staff to login easier and depending on the identity provider setup securely.
Hi everyone, we appreciate adding SAML authentication support to Xero is important to you all. But to be open, this is not on our team’s roadmap right now and we'll close the idea here to give clarity to anyone coming across.
As I see that some of you have mentioned Azure SSO, we have an idea for this that you can join in. Alternatively, if there's a different SSO provider that you'd like to integrate with, start a new idea.

Extremely important feature. SSO is critical to make sure we are compliant with on/offboarding of users

We've been using app-based MFA but being able to use something like duo.com for backups, resets and push notifications (i.e. fido2 key and/or mobile app) would make support a lot easier for small firms.

At least a single SSO option (SAML, OAUTH, etc) for external IDPs (o365, Okta, OneLogin, etc) to authenticate should really be a basic feature for business software...in >2020

Very weird that this isn't supported.
