New Capabilities For The Admin

Long Live The MangoApps Admin — With More Control & Configuration Available In This Release

1. Custom Single Sign On (SSO) support:

  • With Custom SSO network admins get a method of enabling single sign-on between MangoApps and another authentication system. This method of SSO can be used if your authentication system doesn’t support standard SSO options like LDAP/AD, SAML and OAuth via GoogleApps.
  • Custom SSO works by enabling a secure sign-in into MangoApps via a redirect from your SSO portal or application. There are 3 supported methods to implement custom SSO:
    • HTTPS basic authentication
    • HTTPS POST
    • SOAP

  • As a network admin you have control over defining which employees in your company can give away awards of a particular category and even define new award categories.
