This article is for employees whose company has purchased a Dashlane Business plan with SSO enabled.
If you have been invited to join a Dashlane Starter plan, Team plan, or a Business plan without SSO enabled, see Join a Starter, Team, or Business plan.
Important: With the Dashlane Safari extension, SSO isn’t available at this time due to Apple limitations. You can use self-hosted or Confidential SSO on a different browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
Single sign-on (SSO) integration offers a seamless login experience for an organization's people using their organization’s existing suite of IT tools.
If your organization has enabled SSO for Dashlane, you'll no longer need to create and remember a Master Password to access your Dashlane vault. SSO allows you to create and sign in to your Dashlane account using the SSO login you already use to sign in to other tools at your company.
Follow the instructions in this article to create and log in to your Dashlane account with SSO on the web as well as on our mobile applications (Android and iOS). To learn more about SSO, review the Single sign-on FAQ. For an overview of the steps, you can take after joining the plan, see Getting started with your company's Dashlane plan.
How to create your Dashlane account with SSO
Once your company’s Dashlane admin has added you to your your company's plan, you’ll receive an email from Dashlane, or an invite link from your admin, inviting you to join. When you select to join, you’ll be taken to a webpage to create your Dashlane account. Then, you'll have to install the extension to log in to your Dashlane account.
Note: If the Dashlane extension is already installed, you'll be prompted to create your account there instead.
After setup is complete, you'll automatically be added to your company's plan.
On the web
Select the invitation link, in your email or sent by your admin, to join your company's account from the web. You'll be taken to a web page to create your account. There is no action required from you at this point.
Next, you'll be automatically taken to your company's SSO login page where you'll be required to sign in using your SSO username and password.
Once you're logged in, you'll be taken to a web page to finalize the creation of your account.
- Email: Your email address will populate automatically and can't be edited. This email address will be your Dashlane login ID, which you'll use to log in to Dashlane on all your devices.
- By selecting Next, you are agreeing to our Terms of Service and Privacy policy.
Note: Since you are using your email address with your employer's domain to create your Dashlane account, your IT department may be able to access the information you store in Dashlane, including personal logins. Dashlane has no control over your organization’s policies. We recommend you contact your IT department if you have any questions.
Finally, you'll be invited to add the Dashlane extension to your browser. To learn more, review how to get started with the Dashlane extension.

You'll be prompted to enter your work email address—the address with your company's domain name—to create your account. This email address will be your Dashlane login ID, which you'll use to log in to Dashlane on all your devices.
Next, you'll be taken to your company's SSO login page where you'll be required to sign in using your SSO username and password.
At this stage, you can also choose to enable Face ID, Touch ID, or PIN code lock (if your device is supported) to avoid having to use SSO authentication at every login.
You can start adding logins, passwords, and data to your vault and activate autofill to make your web browsing experience easier and faster.

How to log in to your Dashlane account with SSO
Important: With the Dashlane Safari extension, SSO isn’t available at this time due to Apple limitations. You can use self-hosted or Confidential SSO on a different browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
Sign in using SSO if you already have a Master Password
Your admin has enabled single sign-on (SSO), which means that you no longer need to remember your Master Password. From now on, you can log in to Dashlane using the same SSO login that you use for your organization's other applications. To log in with SSO, follow these steps:
- Select Log in with SSO. You'll be taken to your company's IT page to sign in. If you're already signed in, you'll be taken back.
- If prompted, enter your Master Password again.
- Wait a few seconds, and you'll be taken to the Dashlane web app.
Note: If you have any questions, reach out to your company's IT department.
Signing in on the web
The next time you need to sign in to Dashlane, select the D icon from your browser's toolbar to open the login page and select Log in.
Enter your Dashlane ID, which is your professional email address with your company domain, select Continue, and then Log in with SSO.
Note: After you authenticate your browser (logged in to your Dashlane account at least once), your Dashlane ID will be pre-filled, and you only need to select Log in with SSO to access your account.
You'll be taken to your SSO login page where you'll be required to sign in using your SSO username and password.
The setting to Automatically log in with SSO on all future logins is selected by default. If you want to manually Log in with SSO on all future logins instead, sign out of Dashlane and then clear the checkbox during your next login. For the best SSO login experience, we recommend that you restore your tabs on restart.

- Select Settings.
- Select On startup.
- Select Continue where you left off.
Restore tabs on restart in Edge
