Single Sign-On

Libris allows you to integrate your media library with your company’s single sign­-on (SSO) system for seamless addition of employees to your Invited User list, so that they can easily login to view and download from your Public Portal. With an SSO implementation, it’s possible to distribute your important visual assets company­wide without adding employees individually.

Add Employees to Permission groups automatically

With Libris SSO, you can automatically add employees to a special permission group as they log in via your Portal. You can give this group view and download access to any files you wish. (You can also hide files from this group, such as those images that are out of license or unapproved for release.)

As the Administrator of the Libris account, you have full control over the access you wish to provide to this employee group. Please note SSO is not for Library Staff. Admins control who is added and removed to the Library Staff and Library Staff users set their own PhotoShelter passwords for their login.

Is this just for employees?

Our SSO implementation relies on users logging in with an email address in your company’s domain. They don’t have to be employees, but they do have to have an email address in your company’s domain.

Of course, you can add other Invited Users to your account through our normal process. You still have full control over what they can see and download.

Is it right for me?

Our SSO implementation is created with some of the most widely used (and highly secure) protocols. We’ve created a standard installation that your IT team should be able to implement without much assistance from us. Of course, this assumes that you have an IT team that is capable of the integration. We have listed out some of the framework in the second page of this document. Run it by your IT people and see if it fits in with your system and capabilities.
