LOGGING IN
1. Go to https://control.openpath.com/login
2. There are two ways to log in. If you received admin credentials through Openpath, use the
Login tab. In order to use the Single Sign On (SSO) tab, your organization must have enabled
the feature when setting up GOOGLE G SUITE or MICROSOFT AZURE ACTIVE DIRECTORY
Note: If you try logging in via SSO and get an error asking for your namespace, that is because your
organization has enabled SSO for two or more identity providers. Ask the admin who set up the
identity provider integrations for the correct namespace to use. See also USER DATA MODEL.
