We’ve made several improvements to Single Sign-On (SSO) in StatusGator to make authentication easier to configure and easier to monitor. As a reminder the StatusGator dashboard includes SAML-based SSO on all plan tiers, even our free plan.

This update introduces a simplified SSO setup flow along with a new Audit logs tab that provides visibility into authentication activity.

These changes are part of our continued work to make StatusGator the most advanced status page aggregator for the enterprise, with stronger security controls and better operational visibility.

Improved SSO setup

We redesigned the Single Sign-On configuration flow to make setup faster and easier for admins.

SSO configuration can vary depending on your identity provider. Previously, admins had to map provider documentation to generic SAML fields during setup.

The new flow simplifies this process by letting you select your provider first, then presenting fields that match that provider’s terminology.

Provider-aware configuration

You can now select your SSO provider directly in the setup screen:

• Google
• Okta
• Azure
• Other (generic SAML)

Once a provider is selected, the form updates to display provider-specific field names and configuration inputs.

This removes guesswork and makes it easier to match the settings in your identity provider.

Why this matters

Each identity provider uses slightly different terminology for SAML configuration.

Previously, admins needed to manually translate these fields when setting up SSO in StatusGator. The updated flow adapts the interface based on the provider you select so the configuration more closely matches what you see in:

• Google Workspace
• Okta
• Azure AD

This reduces setup errors and makes onboarding teams much faster.

New audit logs for SSO activity

We also added a new Audit logs tab under Organization settings.

This provides visibility into authentication events happening in your organization.

The audit log currently tracks SSO-related events, including:

• Sign-in attempts
• Successful authentication
• Authentication failures
• System errors

Each entry includes details such as:

• Timestamp
• User
• Entity (organization or status page)
• Event type
• Success status
• Additional event details

You can open each entry to view the full event message and authentication metadata, which makes it easier to verify access activity and troubleshoot authentication issues.

Over time we plan to expand audit logs to include additional administrative and system events.

Where to configure SSO

There are two places where SSO can be configured in StatusGator.

Admin SSO for your team

Admins can configure SSO for internal users under:

Team Management → Authentication options

This allows your organization to authenticate team members through your identity provider instead of creating individual StatusGator accounts.

Status page SSO for viewers

You can also restrict access to a status page using SAML authentication under:

Status Page → Privacy

This allows only users authenticated through your organization’s identity provider to access the status page.

Supported identity providers

The improved SSO setup includes optimized configuration flows for:

• Google
• Okta
• Azure

You can also select Other to configure a standard SAML integration with any compatible identity provider.

Building enterprise-grade status monitoring

SSO and audit logging are part of our broader effort to make StatusGator the most advanced status page aggregator for the enterprise.

Enterprise teams use StatusGator to:

• Aggregate hundreds of vendor status pages in one place
• Automatically detect outages and service incidents
• Restrict access to internal status dashboards
• Integrate with incident management tools such as PagerDuty
• Secure access with SSO and identity provider controls
