If you don't see your national federation or are outside of a federation we also support Single-Sign-On (SSO) through other SAML 2.0 Identity services such as: Google for Work (GSuite), ADFDS/ Microsoft Azure/Entra, OneLogin, and others.  To get started check our SpringerLink SSO Setup Guide.


Once set-up your institution's name will show in the Shibboleth dropdown list on Shibboleth login page.
