Five new third-party applications added to G Suite pre-integrated SAML apps catalog

What’s changing 

We’re adding SAML integration for five additional applications:
  • Carbonite 
  • ComponentSpace 
  • Emburse 
  • Sentry 
  • Twic 

Use our Help Center to see the full list of SAML apps and find out how to configure SAML applications.

Who’s impacted 

Admins only

Why you’d use it 

With Single-Sign-On (SSO), users can access all of their enterprise cloud applications—including the Admin console for admins—after signing in just one time. Google supports the two most popular enterprise SSO standards, OpenID Connect and SAML, and there are already many applications with pre-integrated SSO support in our third-party apps catalog.

How to get started 

  • Admins: You can find our full list of pre-integrated applications, as well as instructions for installing them, in the Help Center.
  • End users: No action needed.

Additional details 

Note that apart from the pre-integrated SAML applications, G Suite also supports installing “Custom SAML Applications,” which means that admins can install any third-party application that supports SAML. The advantage of a pre-integrated app is that the installation is much easier. Use out Help Center to learn more about installing Custom SAML Applications.
