    Hi everyone, we appreciate all the feedback and votes on this idea. We know using Microsoft Entra ID SSO is now common practice for some businesses and being able to access Xero via a native integration with Entra ID would streamline how your teams log in and get set up in Xero, as well as help in managing access for larger teams and keeping things secure.

    Our product team have been working with a small limited group of Partners to develop SSO capabilities. Though we can't give any definite timelines yet, we’ll keep this thread updated with news. Thanks

    Xero we desperately need Single Sign On (SSO) capability for Xero access. It's unusual that you do not even have this on your agenda or in the works, based on the responses from your Xero Community Managers. I would have thought that 227 votes by June 2024 for security, not a product feature, would be at the top of your priority list.
    We need Xero to implement Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Single Sign-On (SSO) capability.
    It's a considerable security issue and risk not having this.
    Xero customers should not be forced to consider alternatives to Xero as a result of security.
    Please recognise that many businesses today require Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions, such as Okta and other SSO providers.
    Please reconsider your position on this.

    Thanks for sharing your interest in single sign on across Xero's products. This is available currently across many areas or Xero. For example if you are logged in and working in Xero, then move across to Xero Central(our support hub) you may need to click the login button in the top right of the screen but if you're session hasn't ended you should find the page should refresh and automatically log you in.

    We appreciate wanting a smoother login experience that's recognised across all Xero products and will share if there are any improvements planned around this with you all, here.

    Team Xero,
    It is imperative that Xero implements Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Single Sign-on (SSO) capability.
    In 2024, it is a considerable security issue not having this, posing risk to Xero customers.
    Happy Xero customers should not be forced to consider alternative competitor platforms as a result of this vulnerability.
    Please recognise that many organisations require Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions, such as Okta and other SSO providers.
    Please address this concern for us ASAP and confirm a date for when this capability will be available.
    Thank you.
