In ToolJet, you can use the group synchronization feature to automatically update user roles and custom groups from the identity provider. This functionality enables centralized access management, reduces the risk of manual errors, enhances security, and simplifies the user onboarding process. Group Sync is only available at the workspace level.

Group synchronization occurs at every login. Users must log out and log back in for changes to be reflected. Manual editing of groups in ToolJet is not recommended as changes will be overwritten upon subsequent logins.

:::caution Deleting a user from Identity provider Whenever a user is deleted from the Identity Provider, admins needs to manually archive the user in ToolJet. Otherwise, if password login is enabled, the user can still log in using their password. :::

If the license expires or downgrades to a plan without group sync, both SSO and group sync features will be disabled. Users will need to log in via alternative SSO methods or email/password. If the license limit is reached, new users will not be allowed to log in.

Group Mapping

Group mapping in ToolJet follows these principles:

• Default 1:1 mapping based on group names (case-sensitive).
• Custom group mapping can be configured.
• Users without a matching group are assigned to the end-users group.
