One Login Across Every App
People sign in to Files.com with their OneLogin account — the same one they use for every other OneLogin app, with no separate password for file access.
Govern File Access With OneLogin Identity
Files.com signs people in with OneLogin over SAML and syncs accounts over SCIM, so partner SFTP, controlled outside file exchange, and scheduled drops all sit behind the same login your people already use. Accounts created or removed in OneLogin update in Files.com on their own.
Why Teams Run Files.com Behind OneLogin
OneLogin handles sign-in, the second-factor check, and the whole hire-to-leave lifecycle across your apps. Files.com signs in through it over SAML and syncs accounts over SCIM, so moving files comes under the same login and the same controls — accounts created and turned off in OneLogin update in Files.com on their own.
New Hires Get Access, Leavers Lose It — On Their Own
The moment someone is added in OneLogin, they get their Files.com access. The moment they are turned off, they lose it — across the web, SFTP, and the Desktop App at once. A new hire is set up right on day one and gone the day they leave. This is what SCIM does.
Pay Only for People Who Actually Sign In
You can sync your whole OneLogin directory into Files.com and not pay for the people who never log in. A seat starts counting only once that person signs in for the first time.
A Second Login Check, Even on SFTP
Keep your second-factor check (MFA) in OneLogin for your own people. For outside accounts OneLogin does not manage, add Files.com’s own second factor (2FA) — and it covers SFTP, FTP, and WebDAV too, not just the browser.
Groups Decide Who Sees Which Folders
A OneLogin group maps straight to the folders that group can open, or to an admin role — so access stays defined in OneLogin, where your security team already runs it.
OneLogin Governs Login; Files.com Governs Access
OneLogin decides who gets in. Files.com decides what they reach once they are — nine levels of access, set per person or per group, folder by folder, with the ability to block access and to fence in junior admins. Every sign-in, account sync, and permission change is written to the Files.com audit log.
Leavers Cut Off Automatically
Turn off a departing employee in OneLogin and the next sync turns off their Files.com account too — web, SFTP, and Desktop App, all gone. No access left lying around.
A Clear Record When Something Looks Off
Files.com keeps a separate, detailed log of every account it creates, changes, or turns off from OneLogin, so if a sync does not land the way you expected, you can see exactly what OneLogin sent. It sits alongside the main audit log.
Control Down to the Folder
Grant access per person or per group, folder by folder, with the ability to block access and to fence in junior admins. Which OneLogin group someone is in decides their folders and admin level.
The Second-Factor Check Covers SFTP Too
Outside partner accounts created in Files.com can be required to use Files.com's second-factor check (2FA) — and it holds over SFTP, FTP, and WebDAV, not just the browser.
SSO That Plenty of Big Companies Rely On
Files.com runs one of the most widely used SSO setups in managed file transfer, trusted by a large base of enterprise customers for sign-in-controlled file access.
The Details That Matter for OneLogin
Full Create, Update, and Remove
Create people and groups, keep them current, and turn them off — all driven from OneLogin. Change the directory and Files.com follows, with no one touching the file platform (this is SCIM).
Auto-Create on First Login, Without SCIM
If you have not turned on account sync (SCIM) yet, Files.com just creates the account the first time someone signs in (this is JIT). It cannot remove or disable people, though — so use SCIM when you need leavers cut off automatically.
Several OneLogin Setups, One Files.com Site
Connect more than one OneLogin instance or app to a single Files.com site, so separate business units can run their own OneLogin against one shared file platform.
Let Only the Right Groups In
Point specific OneLogin groups at the right level of access, so only the right people land in Files.com, with the right permissions.
Connect OneLogin the Way That Fits Your Workload
Sign In via SAML
The way people sign in to Files.com with their OneLogin account. One thing to watch: set the certificate fingerprint to SHA-256 — OneLogin defaults to the older SHA-1, and Files.com uses SHA-256.
Automatic Account Sync (SCIM)
Turn this on for automatic create, update, remove, and group sync — including cutting off leavers on their own.
Auto-Create on First Login (JIT)
Nothing extra to set up — this is what happens when account sync (SCIM) is off. Accounts are created the first time someone signs in. Good for getting started fast; because it can't remove people, use SCIM when you need leavers cut off automatically.
What Teams Build With OneLogin on Files.com
Sign In With OneLogin
Someone clicks Sign in with OneLogin on the Files.com login page, logs in, and they are in — the same account they use across your apps.
Add Someone to a Group, Their Account Appears
Add a person to a OneLogin group. Files.com creates their account, gives them that group's folders, and sets their admin level — no manual setup.
One Action to Cut Off a Leaver
Turn off a departing employee in OneLogin and the next sync turns off their Files.com account everywhere. This only affects the account that was synced from OneLogin in the first place.
A Second Check From Staff and Partners Alike
OneLogin asks your own people for a second factor (MFA). Outside partner accounts created in Files.com are required to use Files.com's second factor (2FA), which holds over SFTP.
