How to setup
Google SSO

Categories

In this tutorial, you will learn how to Google SSO setup with V2 Cloud. This is an identity management third party application. Once set up, it allows you to control everything your users can access from a single dashboard.

NOTE : Google SSO will not create the user within your Dashboard. You need to create a user first by following this tutorial. If you don’t create a user, you will have an error when you try to connect as Google doesn’t automatically provision users..
