Identity and access management

Integer SSO

Integer SSO brings provider-based authentication into the commerce stack so teams can manage store access, reduce credential sprawl, and enforce stronger identity control across operator and partner workflows with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory, and related enterprise providers.

  • Okta and Entra ID support
  • Active Directory-ready workflows
  • Centralized authentication
  • Role-aware access control

Application brief

Core capabilities

These capabilities focus on the identity controls that matter once access extends beyond a small internal team.

01

Centralize identity ownership

Move beyond fragmented store access and shared credentials with provider-based authentication and clearer administrative ownership.

02

Configure providers without bespoke overhead

Set up providers, authentication methods, and activation status from a focused admin flow rather than treating SSO like a bespoke integration every time.

03

Run access like an enterprise workflow

Integer SSO is positioned for enterprise-grade commerce teams that need scalable, role-aware authentication management.

Outcomes

What teams should expect

The payoff is cleaner provider control, better administrative confidence, and less operational risk around login access.

  • Stronger identity governance
  • Cleaner login administration
  • Better access confidence

Deployment fit

How to evaluate Integer SSO well

Provider rules, authentication methods, and access states create stronger inputs for security guidance, provisioning workflows, and exception handling.

Integer SSO is most useful when access is becoming a governed operational workflow, not just a login screen problem.

  • List the operator, employee, dealer, or partner roles that need structured access.
  • Confirm which providers, policies, and downstream systems the identity model must respect.
  • Review provisioning, deactivation, and access-change workflows, not just sign-in UX.

Workflow model

How the workflow works in practice

These details show how Integer SSO fits into provider setup, role governance, and day-to-day access administration.

01

Problems it addresses

Integer SSO addresses the issues merchants face when store access grows beyond a small team and shared credentials or manual user handling become operational and security risks.

  • Multiple employee and dealer logins to manage.
  • Security exposure created by shared credentials.
  • Lack of centralized provider-based authentication.
  • Manual user-management processes that do not scale.

02

Provider and security model

The security model combines trusted-provider integration, provider activation and deactivation, method selection, and support for secure role-aware access patterns.

  • Integrates with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Active Directory-aware flows.
  • Manage provider configurations and authentication methods from one place.
  • Provide dashboard visibility for admin ownership and active authentication settings.

Product FAQ

Questions merchants ask before choosing Integer SSO

These are the questions commerce and IT teams usually ask when access control becomes a real operational workflow.

What does Integer SSO do for ecommerce teams?

Integer SSO brings provider-based authentication into the commerce environment so merchants can manage access more cleanly across operator, employee, dealer, or partner-facing workflows. It is meant to reduce credential sprawl and make identity a governed operating layer.

Which identity providers does Integer SSO support?

The product is positioned around enterprise identity environments such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Active Directory. That makes it relevant for merchants that already use provider-managed identity and want ecommerce access to respect the same control model.

Is Integer SSO only for internal staff login?

No. It can also be relevant for dealer, partner, or account-based access models where merchants need clearer governance around who can sign in, what provider they use, and how access is activated or removed over time.

How is Integer SSO different from basic store login?

Basic store login is usually enough only for simple customer authentication. Integer SSO is meant for enterprise access workflows where provider configuration, role governance, provisioning, and deactivation are part of the real operational requirement.

What should merchants review before rolling out Integer SSO?

Review the roles that need governed access, the identity providers already in use, and the provisioning and deactivation flows the business has to support. Integer SSO is best evaluated as an access-management workflow, not just a sign-in page upgrade.
