This article outlines how to configure a custom SSO connection for OneLogin in SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) and OpenID Connect (OIDC).

Note: On March 25, 2026, we introduced a new, streamlined way to configure SSO. This new experience became the standard setup experience for all net-new configurations after that date, and we are currently working to transition all existing connections from the legacy experience. You can read about the legacy experience here. Please reach out to the Udemy Business support team if you have any questions.
