Login via Microsoft

This page provides technical information for IT and Security teams about how Microsoft login works on BlueGamma, what identity data is used, and how your organisation can control access.

1. Overview

BlueGamma supports authentication via Microsoft work accounts using standard OpenID Connect. Users log in by selecting “Sign in with Microsoft” on the BlueGamma login page. All authentication is handled by Microsoft Entra ID; BlueGamma never sees passwords.

2. Identity Data BlueGamma Receives

When a user signs in with Microsoft, BlueGamma receives only basic identity fields:

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Tenant ID

  • User ID

No additional permissions are requested. BlueGamma does not access mail, calendar, files, or any internal organisational resources.

3. Restricting Access to Approved Users or Groups

Your organisation can fully control who is allowed to use BlueGamma by restricting access in Microsoft Entra ID.

Below are the standard steps used by IT teams to limit access to a specific user list or security group:

Steps to Restrict Access Using Entra ID

  1. Go to the Entra Portal https://entra.microsoft.com

  2. Navigate to: Enterprise Applications → BlueGamma

  3. Open Properties

  4. Set: User assignment required → Yes → Only assigned users/groups will be able to sign in.

  5. Go to Users and Groups

  6. Select Add User / Group

  7. Assign:

    • Individual users, or

    • Security groups (recommended for easier management)

  8. Save

Once configured:

  • ✔ Assigned users can sign in normally

  • ✖ Unassigned users will be blocked from accessing BlueGamma

This is the standard method used by enterprise clients to control platform access.

4. Optional: Microsoft-Only Authentication

If your organisation prefers centralised identity management, BlueGamma can disable other login methods and require that all users authenticate via Microsoft.

BlueGamma can disable:

  • Email & password

  • Magic link

This ensures that only users who pass your Microsoft Entra access rules can log in.

To enable this, contact: 📩 [email protected]

5. Enterprise SSO (Add-On)

For organisations requiring deeper integration (e.g., Okta, Ping, OneLogin, enforced IdP login for all users), BlueGamma offers an SSO add-on with optional SCIM provisioning.

This may involve additional cost depending on your plan.
