Bloom AI + Single Sign-On
Bloom supports SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0 single sign-on, connecting to institutional identity providers such as Azure Active Directory, Okta, Google Workspace, and ADFS. Users authenticate with their existing institutional credentials, and Bloom receives their identity from the identity provider. Our team configures the SSO connection for your institution so no separate Bloom accounts need to be created.
How it works
Contact the Bloom team
Tell us which identity provider your institution uses (Azure AD, Okta, Google Workspace, Shibboleth, ADFS, or another SAML/OAuth provider) and we will coordinate the setup.
We configure the SSO connection
Our team works with your IT administrator to establish the SAML 2.0 or OAuth 2.0 connection. We handle the metadata exchange, attribute mapping, and role assignment configuration.
Test and verify the login flow
We run through the full authentication flow together: IdP login, attribute assertion, Bloom account creation, and role assignment. We confirm everything works before going live.
Key capabilities
SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0 support
Bloom acts as a SAML Service Provider or an OAuth 2.0 client, depending on your institution's identity infrastructure. Both protocols are supported.
Automatic user provisioning
When a user authenticates via SSO for the first time, Bloom creates their account automatically based on the identity provider's attributes. No manual account creation or CSV imports needed.
Tested with major identity providers
Bloom has been configured with Azure Active Directory, Okta, Google Workspace, Shibboleth, and ADFS. Any compliant SAML 2.0 or OAuth 2.0 provider can connect.
