About WorkOS

WorkOS is an API platform that adds enterprise authentication and user management features to applications.

WorkOS provides APIs for Single Sign-On (SSO), Directory Sync, Magic Links, domain verification, and user management, aimed at SaaS developers who need to support enterprise customers. It handles the complexity of protocols like SAML and SCIM so developers can add enterprise-grade auth without building those integrations from scratch. It also includes AuthKit, a hosted authentication UI that supports PKCE flows for web, mobile, and CLI apps.

Where to start

Sign up for a WorkOS account to get an API key from the dashboard, then install the Node.js library and follow the SSO or Directory Sync guides depending on which feature you need first.
