Within Teamwork, you can integrate your account with Azure Active Directory and set up single sign-on (SSO).

Note: Teamwork’s SSO offering is part of the paid Advanced Security add-on which you can purchase in addition to your Teamwork subscription.

Using the integration with Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AD), you can:

  • Control who has access to Teamwork via Azure AD.
  • Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Teamwork (single sign-on) with their Azure AD accounts.
  • Manage your accounts in one central location - the Azure portal.

To configure this integration, you will need:

  • An Azure AD subscription
  • A Teamwork subscription with SSO enabled
