# Self-Serve SAML

Below is our self-service guide for setting up and establishing SSO within your Organization.

RequirementsThis self-serve feature only supports Generic SAML and the user must be an ORG Admin within Nucleus. This is NOT for Azure or Okta (contact support@nucleussec.com for support on these SSO implementations).

**Step 1:** Access SSO Settings:

Go to your **Global Dashboard > Global Administration > Organizations** and select your Organization. Under the "Action" column, click the SSO icon to manage Single Sign-On settings.

**Step 3:** Add Org SSO Domain:

Enter the domain that this SSO setup uses. This domain is the "@" part of the email address that users will use to log into Nucleus with.

**Step 4:** Upload .xml Metadata File:

Upload the .xml metadata file from your SSO application that was set up in the SSO provider. This action will automatically populate the form fields below.

Don't want to manually upload the .xml file?You can manually complete the form fields as shown in the SSO dialog box  
  
Generate SP Metadata.XMLOnce you've configured your domain settings, you can generate a SP Metadata file to easily configure your IdP settings

**Step 5:**Generate Test Link:

Select the "Generate Test Link" button and use the generated link to confirm SSO works.

**Step 6:**Save

After confirming SSO works, you can select Save and finalize your SSO configuration.

These steps outline the process of setting up SSO. If you have any specific questions or need further assistance, feel free to email support@nucleussec.com!
