Configure SSO with OneLogin for your workspace

Warning

Workspace-level SSO is a legacy configuration. It can only be configured when unified login is disabled. When unified login is enabled, your workspace uses the same SSO configuration as your account.

If your account was created after June 21, 2023 or you did not configure SSO before December 12, 2024, unified login is enabled on your account for all workspaces, new and existing, and it cannot be disabled.

Databricks recommends enabling unified login on all workspaces. See Enable unified login.
