## Before You Begin
If you are an existing Bitwarden user, you must [Link an Existing Account to SSO]({{site.baseurl}}/link-to-sso/) before authenticating into your Vault using Login with SSO.
## Logging in with SSO
Complete the following steps to use Login with SSO to authenticate into your Bitwarden Vault:
1. Open your Bitwarden App or navigate to the Bitwarden Web Vault.
2. Select the **Enterprise Single Sign-On** button.

3. Enter your **Organization Identifier** and select **Log In**.
{% callout info %}We recommend bookmarking this page with your Organization Identifier included as a query string so that you don't have to enter it each time, for example `https://vault.bitwarden.com/#/sso?identifier=your-org-id` or `https://your.domain.com/#/sso?identifier=your-org-id`.
{% endcallout %}

A browser window will open prompting you to enter your SSO credentials or other required authentication mechanisms.
Upon successful authentication:
- **For existing accounts**, you will be re-directed to the Bitwarden login page and prompted to enter your Master Password to decrypt your Vault data.
- **For new accounts**, you will be prompted to create a Master Password and (optionally) provide a hint. Users with new accounts will need to have access confirmed for shared Organization items, including Collections and Groups.
In both cases, your account now has an *accepted* status within your Organization.
{% callout info %}
Users that are created via Login with SSO **will still be properly organized into their groups and collections** if leveraging the [Directory Connector]({{site.baseurl}}/directory-sync/) utility.
{% endcallout %}
