Sign into Honeycomb using your Google account

Enable single sign-on (SSO) to sign into Honeycomb with your Google account.

New users can sign up for Honeycomb with their Google account. After account creation, individual Honeycomb Team Members can enable SSO for their accounts by linking an individual Google account. Also, a Team Owner can require SSO logins if the team has a G Suite hosted domain.

Sign in with Google SSO 

On the sign in screen, ensure that you select the Login with Google button and do not use the email/password sign in option.

Log in with Google

Refer to the troubleshooting section if an error message appears during an Google SSO sign in attempt.

New Users and Google SSO 

New users, who want Google SSO as their sign in option, must select the Sign up with Google option on the Honeycomb sign up page to start their account creation.

Sign up with Google

Enable Google SSO for an Individual User Account 

If your Team does not require Google SSO, enable it for your own account by linking an individual Google account. To enable Google SSO, follow:

  1. Access your Account page directly, or in the left sidebar, select Account > My account.
  2. Select Google SSO Link Account below your name and email.
  3. Follow the directions to authenticate with Google (including two-factor authentication, if applicable).

When finished, your Account page shows “(Google SSO)” next to your email address to indicate single sign-on use.

Convert a Team to Google SSO-only 

Creating a Google SSO-only team requires a G Suite hosted domain. One Google SSO-only Team is allowed per domain, and new accounts are automatically added to this Team. For example, all users signing in from myexample.com will be added to the myexample.com team.

First, configure a Team Owner account for Google SSO:

  1. Sign in as a Team Owner.
  2. Access your Account page directly, or in the left sidebar, select Account > My account.
  3. Select Google SSO Link Account below your name and email.
  4. Follow the directions to authenticate with Google (including two-factor authentication, if applicable).

Then, convert the Team to require Google SSO:

  1. Access your Team Settings page in Honeycomb.

  2. Select “Enable SSO” and the configuration modal appears. Enable SSO

  3. Select “Google” and then select “Next”. Enable SSO

  4. Then, continue the process to authenticate through Google.

If successful, the team should be converted over to Google SSO. Also, the Team Settings page shows “Single Sign-On: Enabled” to indicate your Team requires SSO.

Troubleshooting 

Convert Existing Honeycomb Account to Google SSO 

If a user receives an error message, similar to the following, after attempting to sign in with Google SSO, their Honeycomb account requires a manual conversion to Google SSO.

Error message - no matching users found

On the user’s account page in Honeycomb, select Google SSO Link Account:

Convert existing account to Google SSO

Then, sign in again by selecting Login with Google on the Honeycomb sign in page.
