Clubhouse cloud application

You must be signed in as a super administrator for this task.

Using Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), your users can use their Google Cloud credentials to sign in to enterprise-cloud applications.

Set up SSO via SAML for Clubhouse

Here's how to set up single sign-on (SSO) via SAML for the Clubhouse application.

Step 1: Get Google identity provider (IdP) information

1. Sign in to your Google Admin console.

   Sign in using an account with super administrator privileges (does not end in @gmail.com).

2. In the Admin console, go to Menu  SecurityAuthenticationSSO with SAML applications.
3. In the Set up single sign-on (SSO) section:
   • Copy and save the SSO URL.
   • Download the IDP Metadata.

In the next step, you send this information to Clubhouse via email. After they respond, you return to the Admin console in Step 3 below to configure SSO for Clubhouse.

Step 2: Send IdP information to Clubhouse

Send an email to Clubhouse Support ([e-mail]) asking them to enable SSO for your organization.

1. Include the following identity provider (IdP) information copied in Step 1:
   • SSO URL
   • Attach the IDP metadata downloaded in Step 1 as a text file attachment to the email.
2. Ask Clubhouse to provide you with your organization's "COMPANY_IDENTIFIER", a unique value you need to finish configuring SSO in the Admin console in Step 3 below.

Step 3: Set up Google as a SAML identity provider (IdP)

   1. Click Add Mapping.
   2. Click Select fieldselect a Google directory attribute.
   3. For App attributes, enter the corresponding app attribute.
10. (Optional) To enter group names that are relevant for this app:

    2. Add additional groups as needed (maximum of 75 groups).
    3. For App attribute, enter the groups attribute name of the corresponding service provider.

    Regardless of how many group names you enter, the SAML response includes only groups that a user is a member of (directly or indirectly). For more information, go to About group membership mapping.
