If your single sign-on (SSO) service goes down, you can still access your account. The method depends on whether or not you disabled Zendesk passwords when setting up SSO in Zendesk.
Accessing the account if passwords are disabled
You can disable Zendesk passwords when you enable SSO for your account. See the related topics below for details.
If Zendesk passwords are disabled and your SSO service is interrupted, admins or the account owner can still access the account by requesting a one-time access link. Zendesk sends the link in an email.
Clicking the link grants you access with no password required. The link only works once and times out after 5 minutes.
Depending on the SSO settings for the account, this option is available only to the account owner, or to the account owner and admins. See the related topics below.
To receive a one-time access link
- Browse to
https://your_subdomain.zendesk.com/access/sso_bypass, whereyour_subdomainis your account name. - Enter and submit the email address associated with your Zendesk user profile.
- Check your email, then click the link in the email to sign in.
