Create a Bookmark Tile for Knoetic
We do not currently support IdP-initiated logins, so the default Duo tile created when you add the SAML application will result in an error when used.
Here is a suggested alternative:
- Create a Bookmark Tile that directs users to our Knoetic login page
- Our login page: https://app.knoetic.com/login
- You could also consider using your Knoetic-specific organization login line to skip our login page and take users directly to the platform
