SSO functionality is available on the Enterprise plan.
Tightknit supports enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) to integrate with your organization’s identity provider, enabling seamless and secure authentication for your community members.

​
Supported Protocols

Tightknit supports the following industry-standard SSO protocols:
  • OIDC (OpenID Connect) - Modern authentication protocol built on OAuth 2.0
  • SAML 2.0 - Enterprise-grade XML-based authentication standard
  • Token-based JWT - Custom integrations for IdP-initiated flows

​
Supported Authentication Flows

​
SP-Initiated Flow

Users start at your Tightknit community and are redirected to your identity provider to authenticate. After successful authentication, they are returned to Tightknit and logged in automatically.

​
IdP-Initiated Flow

Users start at your identity provider portal and can access your Tightknit community directly from there. They land on Tightknit already authenticated without needing to sign in again.
IdP-initiated SSO requires Token-based JWT configuration. Please contact support to enable this feature.
