Single Sign-On (SSO) with Microsoft, Google, Slack, OAuth and Azure

Every user can link their Timebutler account to a Google, Microsoft, or Slack account. This means you no longer need to sign in with a username and password. Instead, on the Timebutler sign-in page you can click the sign-in button for Google, Microsoft, or Slack and you will be signed in automatically (Single Sign-On).

All three providers also support Two-Factor Authentication, giving you an additional way to sign in to Timebutler with an extra layer of security.

To enable automatic sign-in via a Google, Microsoft, or Slack account, sign in to Timebutler and click Settings > Integration in the bottom left.

If you do not see the option for automatic sign-in, an admin has disabled this feature. Admins can enable it by signing in to Timebutler, clicking Settings > More… in the bottom left, then Global settings, and enabling the SSO (Single Sign-On) via Google / Microsoft / Slack options.

Note: For data protection reasons (Schrems II ruling of the ECJ, July 2020), it is intentionally not possible to enable SSO and link all employee user accounts via a central company account — for example in Microsoft Azure. The ECJ ruling invalidated the so-called Safe Harbor agreement, meaning that each employee must individually give their consent to exchange data with US companies. Therefore, each employee must set up the SSO integration themselves rather than having it activated centrally via a company account.
