Using this feature, team members will be forced to reauthenticate after a set number of days, hours, or minutes or a set period of inactivity. You can also manually force log out all team members at any time.

How to enable SSO single logout

To turn on SSO single logout, you must be an Owner or Admin on an Enterprise account.

When SSO single logout is enabled, all team members on your account will be logged out of ZenVideo as soon as they’re logged out of your identity provider. This ensures that ZenVideo sessions are consistent with IdP session policies and that other users cannot breach accounts on the same device.

Follow these steps to enable SSO single logout for your team:

1. Select your profile icon, then Manage team, Settings, and Single sign-on (SSO) to open SSO settings in team management.  
2. Set up a SAML connection if you have not done so already.
3. Within the SAML connection modal, navigate to the ZenVideo metadata section. Copy the Single Logout URL and paste it into the corresponding field in your IdP.
4. Then, scroll down to the Identity provider metadata section. Grab the SAML Single Logout URL provided by your IdP and enter it in the Single Logout URL (Optional) field.
   ⚠️Note: If you leave this field blank, ZenVideo will default to the URL in the Sign In URL field.
5. Save your changes to the  SAML connection.
