How to use single sign-on (SSO) ?

In addition to email-based login, DeskTime supports multiple single sign-on (SSO) options. 

You can access your DeskTime account using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), LinkedIn, Google, or Apple accounts.

DeskTime supports single sign-on for both personal and corporate accounts, with all authentication handled directly by the chosen provider. Selecting an SSO login option securely redirects you to the provider’s sign-in page.
