Hellonext uses its own authentication mechanism to either log users in or create a user account. You can still override this by using your own authentication system and use SSO via OneLogin. 

Here’s how you can configure this.

  1. Start by navigating to your Dashboard → Organization Settings → Advanced → Single Sign-On.

  2. Generate an SSO key.

  3. Click on Configure for SSO redirect.

  4. Choose OneLogin from the dropdown and follow the upcoming steps on OneLogin.

Setting up the application on OneLogin 

  1. Log into your OneLogin account.

  2. Choose Application on the top left corner -> click on Add App on the top right corner.

  3. Search and choose - SAML Custom connector (Advanced).

     

  4. You can set up the name of the application as Hellonext, a description and you can set up the logo

    • Recipient - Copy & paste the Recipient URL from your Hellonext organization’s OneLogin SSO configuration page.

    • Login URL - Copy & paste the Audience (EntityID) URL from your Hellonext organization’s OneLogin SSO configuration page.

    • Make sure the SAML initiator is set as Service Provider and click on Save, in the top right corner.
