Google Workspace

Omni can be integrated with Google Workspace for user authentication via the SAML protocol. Google Workspace cannot currently be used to provision users and groups using Omni's SCIM APIs.

To setup SAML with Google Workspace, follow these steps:

  • In your Google Workspace Admin console, create a new app for Omni
    • In the navigation bar, select Apps > Web and mobile apps
    • Click the "Add app" dropdown from above the table, and select "Add custom SAML app"
    • Name the app "Omni Analytics" or your preferred name, optionally add a description and logo, and press Continue
    • Note the SSO URL, Entity ID, and Certificate to enter into Omni in a later step
    • Set the ACS URL to the value of the Single sign-on URL from the Omni Authentication settings page
    • Set the Entity ID to the full hostname of your Omni instance - e.g. myorg.omniapp.co
    • Leave Start URL blank and Signed response unchecked
    • Set the Name ID Format to EMAIL and Name ID to "Basic Information > Primary email"
    • press Continue
    • In the attributes section, add mappings from "First name" to "first_name" and "Last name" to "last_name"
    • Press finish
  • Configure Omni authentication settings
    • Enter the Sign on URL, Issuer, and Signing Certificate you noted from Google Workspace above
    • Check the box to enable the SAML connection
    • Save the SAML configuration
  • Assign users and groups to the Omni application in Google Workspace
    • In the User Access section of the app configuration, ensure that the appropriate users have access to the app
  • Once these steps are complete, you will see the option to Login with SAML on your Login page.
