A Single Sign-On (SSO) exception lets an approved user sign in to ContractSafe with either your organization's SSO provider or standard ContractSafe credentials. Users without an exception must sign in through SSO when SSO is enabled for the account. You can exempt a user in Settings > Users by opening their user settings and turning on Exempt from SSO.
It's useful when you want to invite users to your ContractSafe account without inviting them to your SSO environment.
How SSO exceptions work
When SSO is enabled on your ContractSafe account:
- Non-exempt users can only log in via SSO. Standard email and password login is disabled for them.
- SSO-exempt users can log in using either standard credentials (email + password) or through SSO if they're part of your SSO environment.

How to exempt a user from SSO
- Go to Settings, select Users, then open User Settings.
- Click the arrow icon (>) next to the user's name.
- In the pop-up dialog that opens, toggle the Exempt from SSO button.
Check which users are exempt from SSO
Note: To verify which users are exempt from SSO, go to the User Settings main page, click the three dots, toggle the Show All Columns button, and check the Exempt from SSO column.
