SSO
{% data variables.product.pat_generic_caps %} with SSO

You must authorize your {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %} after creation before the token can access an organization that uses SAML single sign-on (SSO). Access to internal resources (repositories, projects, and packages) in an enterprise requires an SSO authorization for an organization within an enterprise. For more information about creating a new {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %}, see AUTOTITLE. {% data variables.product.pat_v2_caps %}s are authorized during token creation, before access to the organization is granted.

{% data reusables.saml.must-authorize-linked-identity %}

{% data reusables.saml.authorized-creds-info %}

{% data reusables.user-settings.access_settings %} {% data reusables.user-settings.developer_settings %} {% data reusables.user-settings.personal_access_tokens %}

  1. Next to the token you'd like to authorize, click Configure SSO. {% data reusables.saml.authenticate-with-saml-at-least-once %}

    Screenshot of a list entry for a {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %}. A dropdown menu, labeled "Configure SSO", is outlined in orange.

  2. In the dropdown menu, to the right of the organization you'd like to authorize the token for, click Authorize.

Note

When authorizing a {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %} for use within an organization that belongs to an enterprise which has both an IP allow list and single sign-on enabled at the enterprise level, your IP must also be allowed at the enterprise level. See AUTOTITLE.
