Single sign-on (SSO) integration to connect Workspace with SalesForce services

You can integrate Workspace Web Edition 9 with Salesforce to use Salesforce as your single sign-on (SSO) identity provider (IDP). This means that when your agent has logged in to Salesforce using your corporate SSO provider, the GPlus Adapter for Salesforce obtains an authentication token from Salesforce and logs into Genesys using the token so that the agent does not have to log in to Workspace separately.

Follow these steps:

1. Enable Salesforce as a single sign-on identity provider.
2. Add Workspace as a Connected App.
