Logging in to Pathways
What is Single Sign-On (SSO) and Okta?
Single Sign-On (SSO) allows you to log in to Pathways and other applications using a single set of credentials. Okta, our chosen SSO solution, simplifies the login process and enhances security. With Okta, you can securely access Pathways without the need to remember multiple usernames and passwords.
What Does This Mean for You?
No Identity Management Provider
If your district is not utilizing an Identity Provider (IdP), you will be seamlessly transitioned to Single Sign-On through Okta. Users not using an identity provider will not see much change other than a freshened-up login page. Rest assured, this transition is designed to simplify your login process and enhance security while ensuring minimal disruption to your routine.
Established Identity Provider
If your district utilizes an established identity provider, simply use your identity provider login. With the new Single-Sign On system, you will no longer need a separate username and password. Instead, you will use your identity provider (Google, Azure, Duo, SAML, etc.) login credentials to access Pathways. This will provide you with a more convenient and seamless login experience.
