1. Navigate to your Google Admin Console.

2. Using the sidebar, navigate to Apps > Web and mobile apps:

      https://<organization_name>.dagster.cloud/auth/saml/consume

Step 3: Upload the SAML metadata to Dagster+

Next, you'll save and upload the application's SAML metadata to Dagster+. This will enable single sign-on.

2. Click Download metadata:

   

3. In the modal that displays, click Download metadata to start the download. Save the file to your computer.

4. After you've downloaded the SAML metadata file, upload it to Dagster+ using the dagster-cloud CLI:

      --api-token=<user_token> \
      --url https://<your_organization_name>.dagster.cloud

Step 4: Grant access to users

In this step, you'll assign users in your Google Workspace to the Dagster+ application. This allows members of the workspace to log in to Dagster+ using their credentials when the single sign-on flow is initiated.

1. In the Google Workspace Dagster+ application, click User access.

2. Select an organizational unit.

3. Click ON for everyone.

4. Click Save.

   

Step 5: Test your SSO configuration

Lastly, you'll test your SSO configuration:

• Service provider (SP)-initiated login
• Identity provider (idP)-initiated login

Testing a service provider-initiated login

1. Navigate to your Dagster+ sign in page at https://<organization_name>.dagster.cloud

2. Click the Sign in with SSO button.

3. Initiate the login flow and address issues that arise, if any.

Testing an identity provider-initiated login

In the Google Workspace portal, click the Dagster+ icon. If successful, you'll be automatically signed into your Dagster+ organization.
