While the authentication process remains identical, each URL routes you to a different location: - [sso.8x8.com](http://sso.8x8.com): Directs you to the **8×8 Application Panel**, where you can access the Admin Console and other 8x8 applications. - [admin.8x8.com](http://admin.8x8.com): Directs you straight to the 8×8 Admin Console upon successful authentication. ## To sign in with SSO In 8x8 client applications and other tools, sign-in steps may vary by app. 1. Go to [sso.8x8.com](http://sso.8x8.com) or [admin.8x8.com](http://admin.8x8.com) in your browser. 2. Enter your username or email address, then click **Continue**. 3. When prompted for your password, click **Login with Organization**. This option appears only if your account is configured for SSO. 4. Authenticate with your credentials on your organization's Identity Provider (IdP) sign-in page. 5. Once your identity provider verifies your credentials, you will automatically proceed to your destination (the 8x8 Application Panel when starting from [sso.8x8.com](http://sso.8x8.com), or the 8x8 Admin Console when starting from [admin.8x8.com](http://admin.8x8.com)).
