WorkOS API
Enterprise authentication infrastructure providing SAML SSO, Directory Sync (SCIM), and Admin Portal for B2B SaaS apps to onboard enterprise customers without building it themselves.
Best When
You're building B2B SaaS and need to close enterprise deals by offering SSO/SCIM without months of implementation work.
Avoid When
Your users are consumers or you don't need SAML/SCIM enterprise features.
Use Cases
- • Enabling enterprise SAML SSO for B2B SaaS applications
- • Directory sync to provision/deprovision users from enterprise IdPs (Okta, Azure AD)
- • Embedding an Admin Portal for customers to self-configure their SSO connection
- • Querying synced directory users and groups via API in agent workflows
- • Audit log streaming to SIEM systems
Not For
- • Consumer apps without enterprise customers
- • Teams that don't need SAML or SCIM
- • Applications requiring end-user social login flows (use Auth0/Clerk instead)
