Adding Applications
The real value of BlokSec comes from connecting the applications your users sign in to every day. Once connected, your users can sign in to those applications without passwords — using push notifications or QR codes from the BlokSec app instead.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”BlokSec acts as your organization’s identity provider. When a user signs in to a connected application (like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace), the application redirects them to BlokSec. BlokSec verifies their identity through the authenticator app, then sends a signed token back to the application to complete the sign-in.
This uses standard federation protocols — SAML, OIDC, or WS-Federation — depending on what the application supports. You don’t need to understand the protocols; the BlokSec marketplace handles the configuration details for you.
The Marketplace
Section titled “The Marketplace”The marketplace is the fastest way to add an application. It provides pre-configured templates for common applications, so you don’t need to manually enter federation endpoints, certificate settings, or protocol details.
- From the sidebar, click Marketplace
- Browse or search for the application you want to add
- Click on the template to start the setup process
Each template walks you through the application-specific setup. Depending on the application, this may include steps on the application’s side (like configuring federation in Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace) in addition to the BlokSec configuration.
Available integrations
Section titled “Available integrations”| Application | Protocol | Documentation | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Microsoft 365 | WS-Federation | Setup guide | Available |
| Google Workspace | SAML | Coming soon | Planned |
| Salesforce | SAML | Coming soon | Planned |
| Custom OIDC | OIDC | Coming soon | Planned |
| Custom SAML | SAML | Coming soon | Planned |
Adding an application manually
Section titled “Adding an application manually”If your application isn’t in the marketplace, you can add it manually:
- Navigate to the Applications tab on your organization dashboard
- Click Add Application
- Select a generic template (Custom OIDC or Custom SAML) based on the protocol your application supports
- Configure the application settings — you’ll need the federation metadata or endpoints from your application’s SSO documentation
This requires more familiarity with SSO protocols, but gives you full control over the configuration.
What happens after you add an application
Section titled “What happens after you add an application”Once an application is connected to BlokSec:
- Users are provisioned — Depending on the application, users may be automatically synced or you can add them manually
- Sign-in is passwordless — Users entering their email on the application’s login page are redirected to BlokSec for authentication
- Authentication activity is logged — Every sign-in attempt appears in the Request Log, giving you visibility into who is accessing what
