Single Sign On with Salesforce

Salesforce is a system of record and when combined with its "Digital Experiences" module can enable users to sign in and have access to 1,000s of add-ons.  Fixed Scope can connect Salesforce to those plugins that go beyond what is in the App Exchange, perhaps a 1 off legacy system.

What can you do with single sign on for Salesforce?

Single Sign On allows both members and non-members to use one set of credentials to sign into other services your organization may use.  These may include the following:

Sign into a website to see members only content

  • Connect WordPress to Salesforce

  • Connect SiteFinity to Salesforce

  • Connect Drupal to Salesforce

  • Connect Raytha to Salesforce

Sign into a Learning Management System

  • Connect to Moodle

  • Connect to WebCourseWorks / Forj

Connect to an Event System

  • Connect Salesforce to Hopin

  • Connect Salesforce to EventBrite

What do I need to get started?

Connecting Salesforce to other systems is quite seamless, we can often get what we need on one phone call.  There are two pathways to integration and we can discuss the pros and cons of each on our initial scoping call.

You give us one of the following:

  • We will configure SAML with you on the phone (SAML Entity ID, Login URL, Certificate, Metadata, Profile Fields to Map)

  • Or we will configure OAUTH with you on the phone (Connected App, Client ID, Client Secret, Additional SOQL to run to get fields)

  • 1-2 sample accounts to test with 

We give you:

  • A redirect URL to input into the SAML or OAuth Config

Of course you are connecting Salesforce to another system, let us know what system that is and we’ll tell you what we need from the other side as well on the first phone call.

How long does it take?

The process of setting up a single sign on with Salesforce and another system is about 1 calendar week.  Here is what you can expect:

  • Fill out our Speak to a Developer form to let us know a bit about the project

  • We’ll then send a follow up email to cover what we need on our scoping call, this call can often happen the same day or next day

  • Once you confirm the scope and costs, the project will begin and we’ll ask for the necessary items to get started

  • From here it typically takes 7 days or less to deliver a fully working single sign on

Is there any ongoing cost?

Single Sign On integrations require us to host some middleware on your behalf.  There is a cost of $200/month for the first single sign on, and $25/month for each additional one you add.  This covers the cost of hosting along with any updates that need to happen (e.g. if you upgrade Salesforce, your hosting agreement with us covers the fees)
