Enable single sign-on (SSO) to let team members sign in to DigitalOcean with a single set of credentials from an OIDC-compatible identity provider (IdP), like Okta.
Single Sign-On for DigitalOcean Teams

Single sign-on (SSO) is an authentication service that lets users access multiple applications by signing in once with a single set of credentials. An identity provider (IdP) is an authentication service that manages user identities for applications.
When a logged-out user tries to access an SSO-enabled app, the app redirects the user to the IdP to authenticate. Using a secure protocol, like SAML or OpenID Connect (OIDC), the app sends the user’s credentials to the IdP which then verifies the user’s identity.
SSO on DigitalOcean supports OIDC-compatible IdPs, like Okta.
When you have SSO enabled on a team, you can view SSO activity on the SSO activity page.
