    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

    Hi Kelly,

    This isn’t about convenience. It’s about identity security.

    Xero does not expose sign-in logs (successful/failed), source IPs/locations, or provide native controls like geo-blocking or Conditional Access. Without those, we have no verifiable authentication telemetry and no policy enforcement at the identity edge.

    Bottom line: the current setup lacks a critical security layer. To meet baseline controls, Xero access must be fronted by an IdP (SSO + MFA) with Conditional Access and logging routed to a SIEM. Until that’s in place, you cannot claim adequate identity assurance.

    I wonder how many complaints about the product would make Xero take this seriously. It is not a big implementation task. The responses from Xero shows no real interesting in developing such a critical component.
