Single sign-on with Google
Pritunl supports single sign-on with Google G Suite. This allows users to use their Google employee account to authenticate with Pritunl. Oauth is used to authenticate users, re-authentication is also done on each connection. When a Google user is removed or disabled they will no longer be able to connect to a Pritunl server. To start set the Single Sign-On to Google and set the Google Apps Domain. The domain should be the domain used for the business Gmail such as pritunl.com
. Multiple domains can be separated by a comma. The single sign-on organization will control which organization Google users are added to.
Once configured a Sign in with Google button will appear on the login page.
After a user clicks Sign in with Google they will be prompted to approve the Oauth login. Then they will be directed to their VPN profiles.
