# Direct Login Links/Local Auth

Dropzone environments can authenticate using a username/password, or federate against Google or Microsoft providers, or against your SAML IDP. In the unauthenticated case when you visit your Dropzone URL it will send you to the login page:

For federated / SAML logins, you can save clicks by bookmark a more specific URL that will log you in directly, as if you clicked the login button of your choice.

Assuming your domain is https\://*mycompany*.dropzone.app you could use the following links instead.

| Login Option                  | URL                                                                                            |
| ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Log in with Google            | https\://*mycompany*.dropzone.app/oidc/authenticate/?idp=google                                |
| Log in with Microsoft         | https\://*mycompany*.dropzone.app/oidc/authenticate/?idp=entra                                 |
| Log in with your SSO provider | https\://*mycompany*.dropzone.app/oidc/authenticate/?idp=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxx |

For the customer SSO provider case reach out to your Customer Success representative and they can get you the uuid that is associated with your corporate SSO and use that in place of the `xxxx....xxxx` placeholder above.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Impatient and geeky? To find this uuid from your Dropzone representative, from the login page right click on your corporate SSO login button, select "Inspect", and you'll find it as the value associated with the `data-identity-provider-id`, as seen here:

```
   <button data-identity-provider-id="01234567-0000-0000-0000-ba9876543210">
```

{% endhint %}

## Okta Direct Login Link via Bookmark App <a href="#okta-bookmark-app" id="okta-bookmark-app"></a>

While you can't create an "IDP-initiated" SAML app for Dropzone, you can achieve a similar effect

* Create the Okta app as described in [Okta SAML](/dropzone-101/getting-started/accessing-tenants/managing-users/okta-saml.md)
  * Be sure to Click "Do not display application icon to users" - this app stays hidden
* Make a new Okta "Bookmark App" by following the instructions on [Okta's Bookmark App](https://support.okta.com/help/s/article/create-a-bookmark-app) site
  * Share it to the same users as the SAML app
  * Use a url like shown in the table earlier that ends in *`?idp=xxxxx...`* specific to your login button

## 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://docs.dropzone.ai/dropzone-101/getting-started/accessing-tenants/direct-login-links.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.
