Will users on the same domain be affected after setting up SSO?
One of our teams has a Dropbox Business account and we want to move them to use SSO via Okta.
After setting up SAML SSO for this account, will this affect any other users from the same domain? ...
- 4 years agoAh, I see now. Thanks for the clarification GoGoGriffster
They won't get affected unless the team admin has also enabled domain verification and invite enforcement.

Thanks. I read about that.
My question is though if other domain users that are not assigned in this Dropbox business account will be affected.

One more question....
I've set up SSO as optional, is it possible to force all @uts.edu.au users in this dropbox account to use SSO and other external addresses to use Dropbox login?
If I set SSO to required, does that mean I will have to have external users in Okta?
I'm thinking I don't want to enable Domain verification as it will affect anyone that has a personal account using their @uts.edu.au email address?
- Walter4 years agoDropbox StaffI don't believe this would be an option with SSO set as optional GoGoGriffster - you'd also need to notify the team yourself this way.
When it comes to your question about Okta, could you elaborate a tad please? By external users, do you mean people on the same domain but not already in the team account?
In regards to your last concern, I believe you're referring to the invite enforcement feature, which can be enabled after domain verification has been completed.
This will require all invited users with a personal Dropbox account created using an email on the verified domain to select from one of two options:- Join the team with their existing account.
- If their account has mostly personal content, they can change the email address associated with this account to a new personal email address. This will keep their existing content separate from the business account.

Firstly, Walter thanks for that last bit of information, that will be immensely helpful I believe.
I think we’re just going to stick with optional SSO as it seems by design, if a user has SSO enabled, the login dialog changes to SSO by default.
By external users I meant those not in primary domains in Okta (@uts.edu.au, @student.uts.edu.au). Setting invite enforcement might cause issues with these external accounts and api connections etc that are currently in place.
