Exploring End-User Sign-In Options in Zendesk
What are the sign-in options for end users in Zendesk?
Zendesk provides several sign-in options for end users, including standard Zendesk authentication, social media sign-in, and single sign-on (SSO) methods.
Standard sign-in requires users to register with an email and password. Social sign-in allows users to log in using accounts like Facebook or Google, offering convenience. SSO options, such as JWT or SAML, enable seamless authentication through external systems, ideal for organizations with existing identity management solutions. These options provide flexibility in how users access your Zendesk Support instance.
