# Before you begin

> What you'll set up and what to have ready before you start.

Two parallel tracks — you can do them in either order. Most customers do SSO
first because it unblocks your colleagues logging in, then circle back for
webhooks.

  <Card title="What you'll set up" icon="list-check">
    **Part 1 — Single Sign-On**
    Let your people log in with your company IdP (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID,
    Google Workspace, or OneLogin).

    **Part 2 — Outbound Webhooks**
    Receive real-time event notifications (exams, grading, user lifecycle) in
    your own systems — CRM, HRIS, gradebook, SIEM.
  </Card>

  <Card title="What you'll need" icon="clipboard-check">
    * Admin access to your IdP (Okta / Entra / Google Workspace / OneLogin)
    * A Quippy admin account for your institution — already created by your
      Quippy contact
    * A URL on your side that can receive HTTPS `POST` requests (for webhooks)
    * A secure place to store the webhook signing secret (vault / secret manager)
