Single Sign-On with Azure AD
RemotePC Team and Enterprise plan users can use Single Sign-On (SSO) for accessing their account. Admin of the accounts can choose a SAML 2.0 identity provider (IdP) to login to your RemotePC account without having to remember another password.
To setup Single Sign-On (SSO) with Azure AD, the admin needs to:
- Create an app on Azure AD console
- Assign users to the app
- Configure RemotePC account for Single Sign-On (SSO)
To use Azure AD as an identity provider for SSO, you need to create an app on Azure AD console.
