This documentation has been tested and approved by Kelvin Zero's team
This documentation provides a step-by-step guide to setting up Single Sign-On (SSO) for Datadog using MPAS. SSO simplifies user authentication by allowing access to multiple applications with a single set of credentials. This integration enhances security and improves user experience across your organization.
To set up Multi-Pass with Datadog, ensure you meet the following requirements:
- Datadog admin rights and a business plan
- MPAS Admin rights
- Make sure that all users intended to use SSO in Datadog are registered in your IdP and have the necessary permissions to access Datadog.
Important: Custom elements in URLs (like realm names) are case sensitive. Make sure to match the exact casing from your environment.
