Login and user management

MyDesk × Microsoft 365

Single Sign-On with Microsoft 365 and Azure AD – log in to MyDesk with your existing Microsoft account and Entra ID.

What is the MyDesk + Microsoft 365 integration?

The MyDesk integration with Microsoft 365 (Azure AD / Microsoft Entra ID) allows employees to log into MyDesk with their existing Microsoft account via Single Sign-On (SSO). This eliminates the need for separate usernames and passwords for MyDesk. The integration supports Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) and works with all Microsoft 365 licenses. Administrators can manage access and rights centrally via Microsoft Entra ID, and user creation in MyDesk is automatic based on Azure AD groups. For companies already using Microsoft 365, this is the natural and most secure login method.
