Overview of Opti ID

  • Updated

Opti ID is the single sign-on (SSO) solution for Optimizely products. It provides a single login point where you can switch between your Optimizely products with just one authentication. It also provides a single location to manage your users for each Optimizely product.

Opti ID provides the following benefits:

  • Unify your Optimizely products under a single login URL (https://login.optimizely.com/).
  • Switch between Optimizely products without re-authenticating using Opti ID's global navigation bar.
  • Manage your users, groups, roles, and more for all your Optimizely products in one Admin Center.
  • View usage and billing dashboards in one location for each of your Optimizely products. (Currently available for only Optimizely Data Platform (ODP) and Experimentation.)

Opti ID also provides the following optional features:

  • Configure Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) or OpenID Connect (OIDC) SSO through your identity provider (IdP), or keep local login. Opti ID lets you configure up to five SSO connections.
  • Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) through Opti ID for local login, or through your IdP for SSO login.
  • Use System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) provisioning with Opti ID to securely automate and manage user identity information.

Opti ID is currently available for the following Optimizely products:

  • Collaboration
  • Commerce Connect 14

For step-by-step instructions on configuring Opti ID for CMS (SaaS) or CMS 12, refer to one of the following articles:

Log in

After the technical contact configures Opti ID using the instructions in the Get started with Opti ID article, users can log in through https://login.optimizely.com or your branded company subdomain (for example, mycompany.login.optimizely.com) and access their assigned Optimizely products. See the interactive demo for logging into Opti ID.

Home dashboard

After you log in, the home dashboard displays. Here, you can access your Optimizely products. Select a product tile or use the Home drop-down list in the global navigation bar to switch between products without needing to re-authenticate.

The Optimizely Admin Center tile is only available to administrators.

If you are affiliated with multiple organizations, you can use the organization drop-down list to switch between them without the need for re-authentication. The home icon denotes your home (primary) organization.

You can remove a user from additional organizations, giving them only access to their home organization. If you remove a user from their home organization, that completely removes them from Opti ID.
