Single Sign On with Aptify

Aptify is a membership management system that's been around since the early 1990s.  It was once the leading association software for the top 100 associations including the American Society of Association Executives.  It is still popular today, and as part of the Community Brands family of software, often the upgrade path for associations using this technology is Nimble / Salesforce or YourMembership.

Fixed Scope works with Aptify and also ensures any projects we work on together will continue to work without additional cost when you upgrade to a new solution.

What can you do with single sign on for Aptify?

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 Aptify

  • Connect SiteFinity to Aptify

  • Connect Drupal to Aptify

  • Connect Raytha to Aptify

Sign into a Learning Management System

  • Connect to Moodle

  • Connect to WebCourseWorks / Forj

Connect to an Event System

  • Connect Aptify to Hopin

  • Connect Aptify to EventBrite

What do I need to get started?

Aptify does not support a standard single sign on protocol, instead it requires you to create a login page / middleware page that can capture the username and password.  This middleware page can then transfer login to a well known system.

Aptify also often requires configuration of a subdomain like sso.your-organization.org that can read cookies from the aptify system 

You give us:

  • Aptify Sign in Endpoint
    Examples: (/extservicesapi/services/SSO/Login extservicesapi/services/Authentication/Login/SQL)

  • Username generated for FixedScope to access

  • Password tied to that username

  • Vendor ID 

  • Vendor Token

  • Test accounts to ensure login works

  • A WildCard SSL Certificate to secure our domain

We give you:

  • A CNAME to map your login page to

If your single sign on requires pulling additional information beyond the name user id, and email of a person, we may may also help you setup an SQL query.

Of course you are connecting Aptify 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 Aptify  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 Aptify, your hosting agreement with us covers the fees)
