Identity
SSO and social login for Scout groups
Support sign-in with providers such as Google, Microsoft, Apple, GitHub and Facebook, plus group-managed SAML or OIDC SSO where appropriate.
Modern sign-in options
Groups can support familiar account providers so leaders and parents are not forced into yet another password where social sign-in is appropriate.
SSO for organisations
Scout Suite supports externally managed identity providers for groups that already have their own sign-in system.

Can users sign in with Google or Microsoft?
Yes. Scout Suite supports common social providers including Google, Microsoft, Apple, GitHub and Facebook where those providers are enabled.
Can a group bring its own SSO provider?
Yes. Groups can configure SAML or OIDC SSO in settings so leaders and parents sign in through the organisation's existing identity provider.
