Prerequisites
In order to provision your Salesforce users to Elements you need:
A synced Org Model for your Org in Elements
A Salesforce Administrator profile in Salesforce
An Elements Managed Package installed in your Org
Elements Admin permission set in Salesforce
Provisioning users
Go to your list of Apps and choose "Elements".
Open the "Elements Settings" tab
Open the "Connect users (SSO)" sub-tab
You should see the following screen:
From the selected list, you can select the individual users that should have access to Elements:
Use the checkbox to select the users
Click "Connect users" to provision them to Elements App
The system will create a new Elements user account based on the Salesforce user email. If that email already exists in the system, we will simply connect to that account.
Unprovisioning users
In order to take away someone's access from the Elements App:
Go to the same screen as explained above
Find the users you wish to unprovision and uncheck the checkbox against their account
Click "Disconnect users" to commit the operation
Auto-provision new users
At the bottom of the "Connect Users (SSO)" tab, there is an “Assign new Salesforce user to Elements” checkbox.
If turned on, it will give every new user that is added (or signed up!) to your Salesforce Org access to the Elements App.
Elements using Salesforce as Identity provider (SSO)
Once the user has been connected, they can use their Salesforce username and password to log in to the Elements App.
After providing their email on the Elements login screen, they will be taken to the Salesforce login screen - or straight to the app if they are already logged in with Salesforce.
