Step 5: Authentication to Coalesce
You'll need to decide how your team will sign in to Coalesce. We offer multiple methods.
Username and Password Authentication
Username and password is the default authentication method. This is how you team will sign in, if no other options are configured. A few considerations:
- Requires users to set and remember a password.
- Cloud storage (recommended for better security)
- Browser storage (not recommended)
- Can be stored using either browser storage (not recommended) or cloud storage.
- Supports multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Single Sign-on (SSO)
Set up SSO for your organization from Organization Settings > Single Sign-On with one connection to your identity provider, such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, or Google Workspace. See Set Up Organization-Level SSO.
If your organization set up SSO before organization-level SSO was available, these guides cover the legacy setup:
