Twitter SSO | Communifire Documentation

Communifire supports Twitter integration for single-sign on (SSO), out-of-the-box. This page walks you through configuring a Twitter App, shows you how to enable Twitter integration, and demonstrates the Twitter login process.

Twitter SSO setup is estimated to take 1-2 hours. Once you complete the guide, Twitter SSO will be active on your intranet. For more information or assistance from the Axero team, submit a private case.
