Redox | SSO

SSO

Single Sign-on (SSO) allows applications on the Redox network to securely connect to other applications and share the login context for a user. The most common use case is a provider in an EHR launching an integrated application, and being automatically logged in, as well as passing context such as which patient and visit are open.
