Single Sign-On Across Applications
Learn how OAuth2 and OpenID Connect enable Single Sign-On so users authenticate once and access multiple applications seamlessly.
What Is SSO?
Single Sign-On lets a user authenticate once with a central identity provider and then access many applications without logging in again. OpenID Connect is the modern foundation for web and mobile SSO.
The Central Session
The magic lives at the OpenID Provider (OP). When the user logs in, the OP establishes its own session (often a cookie). Each app relies on that central session rather than maintaining its own credentials.
