# Authentication

When you first sign up to Pipekit, you can choose to authenticate using various social providers, with your email address or a username and password combination.

## SSO (SAML and SCIM)

After creating your Pipekit account, you have the option of converting your Pipekit Organization to use SSO. This will allow members of your organization to authenticate with your chosen Identity Provider (IdP) and will prevent them from logging in with alternative methods.

### Supported Identity Providers

* [Microsoft Entra](/pipekit/authentication/entra.md)
* [Okta](/pipekit/authentication/okta.md)

### Planned Identity Providers

* Google Workspace
