Introduction

In order to enable SSO capabilities on your organization's Chromebooks, you'll need to make some adjustments to the device settings in your G Suite Admin Console. This KB article from Google details the steps to do this, and we will provide HelloID-specific details below.

1. Navigate to Device Management > Chrome Management > User & Browser Settings.
2. Under Security, find the Single sign-on setting and enable SAML-based SSO from Chrome devices.
   
3. Under Startup, modify the following settings:
   • Home button: Always show the "Home" button
   • Homepage: Homepage is always the URL set below (provide your HelloID URL)
   • Pages to load on startup: Provide your HelloID URL
     
4. Save your changes and navigate to Device Management > Chrome Management > Device Settings.
5. Modify the following settings underneath Sign-in Settings:
   • Single sign-on IdP redirection: Allow users to go directly to SAML SSO IdP page
   • Single sign-on cookie behavior: Enable transfer of SAML SSO Cookies into user session during sign-in
     
6. Save your changes.
