To start the SSO setup, reach out to your Customer Success Manager.

Group Mapping with Entra

Please see the general overview on setting up group mapping here.

After adding the groups attribute to your Attributes & Claims, you can choose which Entra groups should be sent to Frontify with users. This is helpful if you have many Entra groups and only want some groups to be mapped to Frontify.

You can follow the screenshots below to Add group claims:

Of course, don't forget to then add that user group name in the "SSO group mapping" field in Frontify in order to add users to the associated Frontify group:

Detailed information about SSO group mapping can be found in this article.
