Single sign on (SSO) via Google lets you login to ClickUp with your Google account to save you time and provide peace of mind.
What you'll need
- Google SSO is available on the Business Plan or above.
- Workspace owners or admins must enable SSO for your Workspace.
- To use Google SSO, your Google account must be associated with a Google Workspace organization.
Note: If you are using a secondary domain in your Google Workspace and you would like to use both domains for SSO, you will need to use our Custom SAML SSO option instead, which is an Enterprise Plan feature.
Login with SSO
Once SSO has been enabled for your Workspace, you can login with your Google account.
Note: Learn how to enable Workspace SSO in the SSO overview article.
To login with Google SSO, you will first need to link your Google account to your ClickUp account.
-
If SSO is required, all of your existing Workspace members and guests will need to login with SSO and their accounts will be linked. Note: The Enterprise Plan offers the ability to exclude guests from SSO by selecting "all SSO except guests". When this option is selected, guests will not be able to log in via SSO, they must use their ClickUp username/password.
-
New people can sign up using the SSO link. This will create their ClickUp account already linked to their SSO account.
-
Existing Workspace members can also manually link their ClickUp & SSO account in their Preferences.
Set login and invite policies
Workspace owners and admins can customize login and invite policies for Google SSO.
Login policy
Admins and owners can decide if Google authorization is required.
If Google authorization is enforced, existing Workspace members will be prompted to link their Google account to ClickUp. If they are already logged into a Workspace requiring SSO, they'll be prompted three times to set it up before being forced to do so.
When logging in, people will be forced to sign in with their Google account in order to access your Workspace.
Invite policy
Admins and owners can decide if members of your Google Workspace team are automatically invited when signing up.
If you opt to automatically add members, Copy and share the link provided with your team to streamline the process.
When a team member uses this link to sign up for ClickUp with Google, they will see the option to join the Workspace.
