Single Sign-On (SSO) is the common name for the process of signing in to your Just Host account using a different software service provider (e.g., Google, Facebook, WordPress, etc.). Although the software systems of Just Host are independent from an SSO service provider, a single successful log in/sign-on will provide access to both. As a user of SSO you would simply enter your username and password of one of our trusted external service providers and your authentication is then accepted to sign in at Just Host.
This article explains how to set up the Single Sign-On feature and use it to authenticate and gain access to your Just Host account. Also included are the most frequently asked questions.
Setting up SSO first involves linking of one of our trusted external provider logins to your Just Host account.
1. Log in to your Just Host account using your primary domain or username and your main account password.
2. Click the Accounts menu at the top of the page.
3. Click Single Sign-On in the submenu.
4. On the SSO page, select Add Account. Follow the onscreen steps to link your Google Account.
5. Once your Google account is connected, you will be able to log out of your Just Host account and log in with your Google credentials by clicking Sign in With Google.*
*You will need to make sure that pop-ups are enabled in your browser.
1. Click the Accounts menu at the top of the page.
2. Click Single Sign-On in the submenu.
3. Next to the SSO account, click Remove.
Anytime you add or remove an SSO account to your Just Host account, we'll send a confirmation to the primary email address on file. If someone links an SSO account you don’t recognize, please secure your account by logging in to your account and updating any information that may be compromised.
Once SSO is enabled:
◈ Use it to log in to your Just Host account instead of using your domain/username and password.
◈ Use it to give access to someone who is helping you build your website or managing the billing portions of your hosting account.
