Question

"Sign in with SSO" is not displayed in the iOS app


The SSO setup has been completed, and SSO login is working when using a PC browser. However, on the iOS app, the “Sign in with SSO” option does not appear. Furthermore, even after entering an email address, it does not redirect to the SSO authentication page.

What could be causing this issue?

Hi ​@nzyagi 👋 Welcome to the Box Community!


Checking this article about Logging in with Single Sign On (SSO)SSO on Mobile Devices:

Notes:

  • While the Box API supports SSO login, because of the customization that goes into setting up SSO, occasionally there are apps or SSO configurations that are not optimized for SSO login on mobile. If it does not work for an app, you will need to create a Box-specific password in your account settings to login with.

This is probably the case. However, to investigate further, can you answer the following questions:

  • Have you tried using a different mobile device and check the SSO login option?
  • Can you try logging into Box on a mobile browser (not the app)?
  • Is everyone in the company affected by this or just several users?
  • Are these user's affect on all networks?
    • i.e. Can they login to Box app via mobile SSO on their mobile networks, home networks, or work networks?

I look forward to your reply! 😊

Thank you for your response.
As you mentioned, there is a strong possibility that the SSO configuration is not optimized for mobile SSO logins.

I may have some additional questions, but first I would like to get in touch with the SSO provider.

Thank you again.

Dear ​@nzyagi 😊 Sounds like a plan!


Upon checking with your SSO provider, and you still have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
 

Have a great day! 🌻
