By default, Zulip allows logging in via email/password as well as
|
|
|
|
various social authentication providers like Google, GitHub, and
|
|
|
|
GitLab. You can restrict users to logging in via only a subset of
|
|
|
|
these methods.

LDAP and various custom SSO login methods are currently restricted to
|
|
|
|
self-hosted Zulips only. SAML authentication is supported by Zulip
|
|
|
|
Cloud but requires contacting support@zulipchat.com to configure it.
