# Single Sign-On (SSO) in Marketing Cloud Intelligence

If you’re the administrator of a Marketing Cloud Intelligence account, you can grant team members access by signing into a central identity provider. SSO) makes access easier and more secure for everyone. You can put the identity provider that you already trust in charge of authentication, while team members can access Marketing Cloud Intelligence without another password to manage.

When you set up SSO as the default setting, your identity provider authenticates end users. When a user wants to access Marketing Cloud Intelligence, all processes, policies, and security features that were set up with your identity provider are applied. Security features that Marketing Cloud Intelligence provides, such as two-step verification or the ability to reset passwords, are no longer in effect because your identity provider handles all aspects of authentication.

Note RelayState redirection within SSO settings isn’t supported. The interaction between Marketing Cloud Intelligence and SSO providers is only via authentication. After users are authenticated, they’re directed to the relevant workspace and to the default login page in the Marketing Cloud Intelligence platform.

After SSO is turned on, users can log in to the Marketing Cloud Intelligence platform in two ways.
