# OneLogin Setup

This article is intended to get you up and running with OneLogin as your SSO provider with Nucleus.

          Note

          

You will need superadmin access within your OneLogin console to set up the Nucleus app.

## Prerequisites:

You will need to tell your Nucleus support representative that you are setting up SSO. If you are setting up token encryption, inform your Nucleus support representative. They will send you the relevant information to interface with your Nucleus instance, including relevant URLs.

1. Log into your OneLogin console.
2. Click the Administration link in the top right of the screen.

| Upload an Icon | You are able to upload a Nucleus logo to be displayed with the name. |

After sending over your SAML metadata, your organization should be enabled for SSO within 24 hours. Your Nucleus support representative will have more information for you.

If you are setting up token encryption, confirm the URL provided to you includes the parameter "`?sso=`", which is required for token encryption. If the URL doesn't contain that parameter, reach out to your Nucleus support representative.
