Enabling Single Sign-On (SSO) on Forms (Formstack)

Issue/Question

How do I enable Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication on a form and populate fields based on the user logged in?

Environment

• Formstack Suite platform (currently focusing on Forms module)

Resolution

1. When creating a new form, decide if you need SSO authentication:
   • To enable SSO on form creation, make sure to enable Field Prefill and the value to SSO Prefill Mappings.
   • If you do not want SSO for the form, disable Field Prefill.
2. Alternatively, to enable SSO after form creation:
   1. Open form and go to Settings tab.
   2. Navigate to Security in the left navigation menu.
   3. Change Form Password setting to Single Sign-On (SSO).
3. To populate form fields with user data from SSO, add fields to your form by dragging the following saved fields onto the form:
   • SSO-FirstName – First Name
   • SSO-LastName – Last Name
   • SSO-Email – Email Address
   • SSO-WKUID – WKU ID
   • SSO-Title – Title
   • SSO-Department – Department
4. Save and publish your form.
5. Test form by accessing it; users will be prompted to authenticate via SSO if enabled, and any mapped SSO fields will prefill automatically if used.
