After you turn it on, they can install the Dashlane browser extension and create their account.

If your plan is out of seats, members won't be able to log in until you buy more seats.

If you’re using Just in Time Provisioning along with another automatic provisioning method like SCIM or AD sync, make sure to add all of your plan members to your synced groups. Otherwise, plan members who aren’t added to synced groups will be removed the next time the directory syncs.

(SSO) Error message: AADSTS700016

The application with the identifier https://domain-sso.azurewebsites.net/saml was not found in the directory domain. This can happen if the application still needs to be installed by the tenant's administrator or, consequently, by any user in the tenant. You may have sent your authentication request to the wrong tenant.

1. Open Azure Portal with your admin account.
2. Check the Dashlane Enterprise app to ensure that the Entity ID and ACS URL are the same as those in the Dashlane Admin Console.

(SSO) Error message: AADSTS50105

Your administrator configured the application Dashlane (application code) to block users unless they are specifically granted (‘assigned’) access to the application. The signed-in user is blocked because they are not a direct member of a group with access, nor had access directly assigned by an administrator. Please contact your administrator to assign access to this application.

How to fix

1. Log in to Azure Portal with your admin account.
2. Check the Dashlane Enterprise app Users and Groups: Add the users you want to access Dashlane with SSO.
3. Test the login again.
4. If it's still not working, test the SSO login from a different browser profile so that it's not synced to your admin account to exclude any browser profile issues.

(SCIM) Error message: An HTTP/404 Not Found response was returned rather than the expected HTTP/200 OK response

You appear to have entered invalid credentials. Please confirm you are using the correct information for an administrative account.

How to fix

1. Confirm that you've enabled the toggle button Activate automatic user provisioning enabled in Dashlane Admin Console.
2. Return to the Azure Dashlane Enterprise app and test the connection again.

If you select “re-generate token,” you'll need to update it in Azure.

(SSO) Error message: We couldn't verify your SSO connection

Error when testing the connection with Dashlane in the Admin Console. You might also see this error when trying to save the metadata.

How to fix

• Confirm you're opening and logging in to the Admin Console from the Dashlane browser extension.

  Install the Dashlane browser extension

• If your IdP's admin portal is open, log out of your admin account on Azure and close the browser tab before testing the connection with Dashlane again.

(SSO) Username change (UPN) in Dashlane

For your team members to log in to their accounts, their UPN (user principal name) in your identity provider must match their Dashlane ID (the email addresses you see in the Admin Console). You should only update their UPN to the new email address after they've exported their data from the original Dashlane account.

How to fix

1. If the UPN has already been changed to the new email address, you'll need to change it back to the old email address to allow the affected members to log back into their old accounts.
2. Turn off the Smart Spaces options in the Admin Console, so your team members can export the data from the Business Space. If your team isn't using Spaces, Turn on the Allow Export policy

3. Ask your team members to export their data from the existing accounts and then log out from Dashlane.

   Log out of Dashlane

4. Update the user profiles in the IdP with the new email addresses.
5. Remove the old accounts from your Dashlane team.

6. Invite the new accounts to the Dashlane team using the new email addresses. For more information on how to manage the team members in your plan, you can refer to this article:

   Manage members of professional plans

7. Ask your team members to create their new accounts by selecting the link in the email with the team invitation.
8. Ask your team members to import the backup file to recover their data.
9. Turn on Smart Spaces again or turn off the Allow Export policy, depending on your team setting.

10. If you've turned on SCIM provisioning, contact Dashlane Support for the last step.
