# OpenID Connect (OIDC) SSO is now supported

**Published on February 10, 2025**

In addition to SAML 2.0 support, we're pleased to announce that Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication via **OpenID Connect (OIDC)** is now supported in Daxium-Air.

## OIDC vs SAML 2.0: what's the difference?

Both protocols enable secure, password-free access through SSO, but they address different needs:

* **SAML 2.0** — ideal for large enterprises with traditional applications (intranets, business tools). It relies on XML exchanges and fits perfectly in environments already equipped with an Identity Provider (IdP) such as ADFS or PingFederate.
* **OIDC (OpenID Connect)** — a more modern and flexible solution, particularly suited to web and mobile applications. Based on OAuth 2.0, it offers a lighter, standardized mechanism using JSON tokens (JWT), making it easier to integrate with identity providers such as Azure AD, Okta, Google, Auth0, Keycloak, and others.

With this new option, you can now choose between SAML 2.0 and OIDC to meet your SSO requirements.

If your organization uses an OIDC-compatible Identity Provider, contact us to configure this authentication together in just a few steps.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.center.daxium-air.com/news/2025/oidc-sso-supported.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
