Make a status hub private

Note

This help page doesn’t include advanced details about how to set up SAML. Your IT administrator should/will likely be familiar with the configuration process and the data required by the system.

You can make your status hub private or restrict access with the following methods:

1. Restrict access using SAML 2.0:

a. Turn on the Enabled toggle and copy the SSO URL (click the "Copy to clipboard" link).

b. Connect to your IdP. You need to open the account with the IdP and build or add a StatusHub app. Follow their instructions and use the SSO URL that you copied in the previous step.

c. Back in the Account settings form in StatusHub, paste the XML output you obtained from the IdP into the SAML 2.0 IdP metadata in XML format field

2. Restrict access using OAuth (Google)

3. Set password protection for your hub.

Select the option and create the Hub password required for users to access the hub. We recommend using this option temporarily before you make your status hub(s) available; use during your team’s internal testing only. This isn’t a secure permanent solution. To remove the password simply select one of the other options.
