What is Mandatory SSO?
Mandatory SSO will ensure that staff log in to ClassDojo using their district credentials, and will only be able to access their school(s) if they are logging in with these district credentials.
Mandatory SSO allows for more district control and security, and ensures that once a staff member is no longer at the district, they will not have access to their district email, and thus will not have access to ClassDojo.
Is Mandatory SSO right for my district?
Enabling Mandatory SSO will increase security and provide easy access to users with district credentials.
However, Mandatory SSO does require a single domain to be used across the district. If you are a school district that uses multiple domains across schools, Mandatory SSO might not be right for you, as it would mean many users would be excluded from ClassDojo.
How is Mandatory SSO enabled?
Mandatory SSO is enabled by ClassDojo staff.
In order to enable Mandatory SSO, districts must provide the following information:
- Date of implementation (discussed with ClassDojo team)
- Provider: Google or Microsoft
- Tenant ID
- For Microsoft, this is the Tenant ID
- For Google, this is generally your staff email domain
District leaders are encouraged to proactively communicate with staff who will need to update their credentials to ensure they are prepared for the transition before the enforcement date.
