A guide for setting up Vultrs Single Sign-On integration with Google accounts to streamline authentication across services.
Single Sign-On (SSO) is a service that lets you authenticate to multiple websites and applications using one set of login credentials. SSO eliminates the need for multiple logins, hence providing a better user experience. Vultr SSO integrates well with Google SSO service, a user integration platform that allows users to sign in to multiple applications.

Click Users under Identity and Access Management, then click Add User. The Add User panel opens on the right.

Review the User Email Address, Groups, Roles, and Policies values, then click Send Invitation. To change a selection, click Back to Permissions Selection.
Adding a user sends an invitation instead of creating the account directly. The recipient can accept or decline it, and you can revoke a pending invitation. Users who already have a Vultr account join your organization with that existing account.
