Integrate Huddle
Huddle allows you to create secure workspaces and portals to collaborate around content, track activity, and communicate securely on projects o client engagements. See https://my.huddle.net. You can protect access to Huddle by integrating Huddle with Identity as a Service. Once integrated, users can use single sign-on to log in to their Huddle account through Identity as a Service.
Note: This integration was tested using Identity as a Service version 5.33 and Huddle 2.72.2204-web-0cd. Other versions of Huddle may require integration and configuration steps that differ from those documented in this procedure. For other versions of Huddle, this integration guide may be used as an initial approach for integrating Huddle. In the event of other issues, contact support@entrust.com for assistance.
