Short Summary

The way you sign in to Workiva is changing. From Monday 27^th March 2023 you must use Single sign on (SSO) instead of your typical Workiva username. To use single sign on enter your Accelins.com email address, click the button or link titled 'Sign in with Single Sign-On' and enter your Microsoft 365 password. (This is also the password you use to sign into your laptop). You should now be signed in to Workiva using SSO.

Further Details

Enabling Single Sign On (SSO) for Workiva - and other applications we use within Accelerant - reduces the number of usernames and passwords you need to remember - it's the same email address and password for all applications. It also improves security as we can ensure that our passwords are centralised and meet appropriate complexity requirements.

To login to Workiva using SSO follow these steps:

Visit https://eu.wdesk.com/home/ and enter your email address in the 'Username' field. Then click 'Next'.

If your screen looks like the image below, enter your Microsoft365 password and click 'Sign in with SSO' (circled red). If it doesn't look like this just go to the next step.

If your screen looks like this one below, click the green button 'Sign in with Single Sign-On'. This should sign you straight into the application. If not, go to the next step.

On occasion the familiar Microsoft window below will appear and ask you for your Microsoft credentials. If prompted, run through this process, entering your accelins.com email address, your password and completing the 'verify your identity' page (multi-factor authentication). You should then be logged in and redirected to the main Workiva portal. If it's your first time logging in you may be redirected to step 3 to perform an additional login.

Success! You should now be logged in:

If you have any difficulties with the new SSO login process, please raise an IT Support ticket via the Technical Support Portal which can be found in the Hub area of Microsoft Teams and one of our support team will be in touch to assist.
