Auto provision users

A W&B user with matching email domain can sign in to your W&B Organization with Single Sign-On (SSO) if you configure SSO and your SSO provider permits it. SSO is available for all Enterprise licenses.

enable SSO for authentication

W&B strongly recommends and encourages that users authenticate using Single Sign-On (SSO). Reach out to your W&B team to enable SSO for your organization.

To learn more about how to setup SSO with Dedicated cloud or Self-managed instances, refer to SSO with OIDC or SSO with LDAP.

W&B assigned auto-provisioning users "Member" roles by default. You can change the role of auto-provisioned users at any time.

Auto-provisioning users with SSO is on by default for Dedicated cloud instances and Self-Managed deployments. You can turn off auto provisioning. Turning auto provisioning off enables you to selectively add specific users to your W&B organization.

The proceeding tabs describe how to turn off SSO based on deployment type:

Reach out to your W&B team if you are on Dedicated Cloud instance and you want to turn off auto provisioning with SSO.

tip

Auto provisioning with SSO is useful for adding users to an organization at scale because organization administrators do not need to generate individual user invitations.

Domain capture

Domain capture helps your employees join the your companies organization to ensure new users do not create assets outside of your company jurisdiction.

Domains must be unique

Domains are unique identifiers. This means that you can not use a domain that is already in use by another organization.

Domain capture lets you automatically add people with a company email address, such as  @example.com, to your W&B SaaS cloud organization. This helps all your employees join the right organization and ensures that new users do not create assets outside of your company jurisdiction.

The proceeding table summarizes the behavior of new and existing users with and without domain capture enabled:

With domain captureWithout domain capture
New usersUsers who sign up for W&B from verified domains are automatically added as members to your organization’s default team. They can choose additional teams to join at sign up, if you enable team joining. They can still join other organizations and teams with an invitation.Users can create W&B accounts without knowing there is a centralized organization available.
Invited usersInvited users automatically join your organization when accepting your invite. Invited users are not automatically added as members to your organization’s default team. They can still join other organizations and teams with an invitation.Invited users automatically join your organization when accepting your invite. They can still join other organizations and teams with an invitation.
Existing usersExisting users with verified email addresses from your domains can join your organization’s teams within the W&B App. All data that existing users create before joining your organization remains. W&B does not migrate the existing user's data.Existing W&B users may be spread across multiple organizations and teams.

  2. In the upper right corner of the page, select the User menu dropdown. From the dropdown, choose Settings.

Assign or update a user's role

Every member in an Organization has an organization role and seat for both W&B Models and Weave. The type of seat they have determines both their billing status and the actions they can take in each product line.

You initially assign an organization role to a user when you invite them to your organization. You can change any user's role at a later time.

A user within an organization can have one of the proceeding roles:

RoleDescriptions
AdministratorA instance administrator who can add or remove other users to the organization, change user roles, manage custom roles, add teams and more. W&B recommends ensuring there is more than one administrator in the event that your administrator is unavailable.

Viewer (Enterprise-only feature)A view-only user of your organization, invited by an instance administrator. A viewer only has read access to the organization and the underlying teams that they are a member of.
Custom Roles (Enterprise-only feature)Custom roles allow organization administrators to compose new roles by inheriting from the preceding View-Only or Member roles, and adding additional permissions to achieve fine-grained access control. Team administrators can then assign any of those custom roles to users in their respective teams.

  1. Navigate to https://wandb.ai/home.
  2. In the upper right corner of the page, select the User menu dropdown. From the dropdown, choose Users.
