# Enabling Single Sign-On for Tenants at the CommCell Level

In a multi-tenant Commvault environment, service providers can configure SAML authentication for all tenants by configuring SAML authentication at the CommCell level. When set at the CommCell level, SAML authentication applies to all companies in the Commvault environment.

To configure SAML authentication at the CommCell level, you must map a company name attribute. The value sent in the company name attribute must match the value in the Company alias box on the company details page. If a matching company alias is not found, the user cannot log on. If a value is not sent in the company name attribute, a new user is created at the CommCell level and is not associated with a company.

Note

When you configure SAML authentication at the CommCell level, advise tenants to not configure SAML authentication at the company level.
