Enabling SSO for child organizations makes moving between organizations under your authority much more seamless and convenient. We are excited to announce that single sign-on (SSO) is now automatically enabled when you create child organizations, allowing you to sign in to child organizations without having to provide separate credentials.

## SSO for child organizations

When you create a new child organization, a subdomain is automatically created and single sign-on (SSO) is enabled, allowing you to sign in to the child organization without having to provide separate credentials.

### Enabling or disabling SSO

#### Enable SSO

If a [subdomain](#set-up-a-customsubdomain) exists, but SSO is disabled for the child organization, click **Enable SSO**:<br/><img src={useBaseUrl('img/manage/subscriptions/enable-sso-button.png')} alt="Enable SSO button" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="250"/>

If there is no subdomain defined for a child organization, hovering your mouse over the **Enable SSO** button displays the message **Set up custom subdomain before enabling SSO**:<br/><img src={useBaseUrl('img/manage/subscriptions/no-subdomain-defined.png')} alt="No subdomain defined" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="300"/>

To set up a custom subdomain for the child organization, see [Set up a custom subdomain](#set-up-a-customsubdomain) above. Once you set up the subdomain, the subdomain's URL will appear and the **Enable SSO** button will be clickable.

#### Disable SSO

When a child organization has SSO enabled, the child organization's details display the subdomain URL in the **Subdomain** field, and the **SSO** field says **Enabled**:<br/><img src={useBaseUrl('img/manage/subscriptions/subdomain-and-sso-enabled.png')} alt="SSO enabled for a child organization" style={{border: '1px solid gray'}} width="250"/>

If you want to require administrators to enter credentials to sign in to the child organization, click **Disable SSO** to turn off single sign-on.

### Sign in to a child organization automatically

When you open the details of a child organization, a link to the child organization appears under **Basic Details**. When you click the link, you are automatically signed in to the child organization.

Automatic sign-in works because when you created the child organization, a [subdomain](#set-up-a-customsubdomain) was automatically added, and SSO was enabled by default. As a result, you are already provisioned as a user in the child organization and can access it at any time without needing to log in.

### Sign back in with parent organization credentials

As an administrator, if you log out of a child organization with SSO enabled, the following screen appears. Click **Login with Parent Org** to sign back in automatically using your parent organization credentials.
