RollCall + Google Workspace
Let staff and parents sign in to RollCall with Google Workspace, one less password to manage.
Book a demoWhat the Google Workspace integration does
RollCall supports SAML 2.0 single sign-on with Google Workspace, so staff and parents can sign in with their existing school Google accounts. RollCall acts as the service provider and delegates authentication to Google Workspace, removing separate passwords from RollCall and simplifying secure access.
Data flow
One-way syncGoogle Workspace handles authentication via SAML 2.0. RollCall acts as the service provider and delegates sign-in to Google Workspace, so no passwords are stored in RollCall.
| Data | Direction |
|---|---|
| Authentication (SAML 2.0)Your identity provider verifies the user and returns a signed SAML assertion | Google Workspace → RollCall |
| Session tokensRollCall stores only the resulting session tokens, never the password | Google Workspace → RollCall |
What you need
- A Google Workspace tenant with administrator access
- A RollCall account with SSO enabled
Setup
Create a SAML app in Google Workspace
In the Google Admin console, create a custom SAML app for RollCall. Add RollCall's ACS (Assertion Consumer Service) URL as the reply URL so Google Workspace knows where to send the SAML response.
Share the SAML metadata with RollCall
Provide the IdP metadata (sign-in URL and certificate) to RollCall and choose who can use SSO: administrators, parents/guardians, or both.
Test and roll out
Confirm a test sign-in works, then communicate the single sign-on option to your users.
