# Connect your Accounts

## What is this?

The  Sparx SaaS platform uses multiple information sources to give you a wholistic view of the usage for your organization's SaaS apps. The main component is wherever your company's business accounts are hosted. Many of our users use both Google (where they create and host business emails) and Okta (where they host their SSO). Combining these two (or Microsoft + Okta) provides the best picture into usage.

## How do I set this up?

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Okta" %}
When you go to connect Okta on the Sparx Platform page, you will need to input your Okta domain and API token.

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Google" %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
Note: This must be completed by a Google Workspace Admin
{% endhint %}

In the Sparx SaaS setup page or Accounts page, click **Google Workspace** to provide permission to connect this account.

{% hint style="info" %}
Since Google Workspace does not track login events for accounts not on your SSO (e.g. accounts that sign into apps with Sign in with Google, or just a username and password), we offer the Sparx Chrome Extension.
{% endhint %}

To get the most accurate usage data for your organization, please download our [Sparx extension](/sparx-documentation/getting-started/saas/sparx-chrome-extension.md) to your organization.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Microsoft" %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
Note: This must be completed by a Microsoft Azure Admin
{% endhint %}

In the Sparx SaaS setup page or Accounts page, click **Microsoft Azure** to provide permission to connect this account.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
