How To Set Up Microsoft Azure SSO

Overview

This article is intended for Microsoft Administrators to set up single-sign on for staff and students in their district. Please note that rostering users into Wayfinder using Microsoft is not available at this time.

Instructions

1. As a Microsoft Administrator, navigate to the Wayfinder Web App and click on the button "Sign in with Azure."
2. A pop-up should appear, prompting you to authenticate your account through Microsoft Azure. If you do not see a pop-up, consider using this article to check if Google Chrome is blocking pop-ups.
   
   
   
    
3. Once you sign in, Microsoft will request you grant organizational access to the Wayfinder.
   
   
    
4. Once you accept this, Microsoft will also request you to grant permission to Wayfinder for your individual account.
    
   • Even after Wayfinder is granted organizational access, each user will be prompted to grant Wayfinder access to their user data through Microsoft Azure the first time they login.
5. After completing all prompts as Azure administrator, you will be redirected to the Wayfinder Login Page. *Note that you may receive an error message indicating you have not been invited to the Wayfinder application.
    
   • This is expected behavior if you do not already have an account with Wayfinder associated with your email address. To request an account with Wayfinder, please contact [e-mail].
6. Otherwise, this concludes the setup for Microsoft Azure SSO.
