Enable single sign on (SSO) and the Recruiting Widget

Learn how admins can turn on SSO and the Recruiting Widget so users can open Paycor Recruiting from Paycor.com without signing in again.

This article is for administrators.

 

Overview

You can enable SSO so users with Single Sign-On access can access Paycor Recruiting from Paycor.com without signing in to Paycor Recruiting separately. 

Enable Recruiting SSO Access for a User

  1. Go to Company > User Access > Access & Registration. The Access & Registration screen opens. 
  2. Select the user's name. The Summary screen opens.
  3. In the Recruiting-Single-Sign-On section, select (Enable). 
  4. By following the sample image here, verify that the email address matches the email address in Paycor Recruiting.
  5. Select the green check mark and then OK.
  6. If you have multiple Client IDs, make sure SSO is enabled for your users on each Client ID. 

Grant Access to the Recruiting Widget

When you enable the Recruiting widget for a user, they can:

  • See job listings and offers they are linked to in Paycor Recruiting
  • Log in directly from the widget

The widget displays when the user is assigned to active jobs as a Hiring Manager or Recruiter, and Single Sign-On is enabled for them

Notes:

  • User must be assigned to jobs with active candidates to see them on the widget.
  • User must be a part of an active offer approval flow to see them on the widget.

User Receives Error Messages or Cannot Log into Recruiting from the Widget

First, make sure their email address matches in all 3 places listed in Step 4 of this article: Steps to Enable Single Sign-On Access to a User

  • Error message on the widget
  • Can’t log into Recruiting from the widget
  • Get redirected to a blank page/bad URL when they click Manage Recruiting 

Additional Troubleshooting

If the user is trying to access Recruiting or a Paycor Support Center article and is directed to the Sign in to Paycor Recruiting page, tell the user to: 

  1. Enter their email in Email Address 
  2. Leave Password blank
  3. Select Sign In
    Shows the Sign in to Paycor Recruiting page.

Note: If you update an email address after SSO has been enabled, you must disable and re-enable SSO for SSO and the widget to work.
