Securing Your Microsoft Login for Zendesk

Learn how to secure your Microsoft login for Zendesk by adding a tenant ID or enabling SAML-based SSO.

How can I secure my Microsoft login for Zendesk?

To secure your Microsoft login for Zendesk, you need to follow specific steps. If you're using Microsoft sign-in, it's crucial to either add your company's Microsoft tenant ID to your Microsoft sign-in settings within the Zendesk Admin Center or enable SAML-based SSO with your company's Microsoft Entra ID. This ensures that your account remains protected and accessible.

For end users signing in with Microsoft Entra ID, enabling SAML-based Microsoft Entra ID SSO is necessary unless you allow authentication through personal Microsoft accounts or other options like Zendesk passwords, Google, or Facebook. For more details, check theoriginal link.
