Configuring Office 365 OAuth2 for Single Sign On

Office 365 OAuth2 Integration allows for Single Sign On (SSO) to Watchman Monitoring using your O365 credentials.

By configuring Office 365 OAuth2 SSO, you can allow anyone in your Office 365-managed domain to automatically log in without creating a second set of credentials for Watchman Monitoring. Two factor authentication is supported, and is managed by the same O365 authentication rules you define for your domain.

When configuring Office 365 OAuth SSO, you can set default access privileges for new users in your domain, preventing the need to manually register each user in your organization. Privileges can be customized by individual user once they have logged in once, or by manually creating their account.
