Key Administrative Tasks

Inviting a new user

  1. Go to Settings → User Management.

  2. Click + Invite User.

  3. Enter the user's email address and select their role.

  4. Click Send Invitation.

The user receives an email with an activation link. They must activate within 7 days before the invitation expires.

Configuring SSO

ContextQA supports SAML 2.0 for enterprise SSO with providers such as Okta, Azure Active Directory, and Google Workspace.

  1. Go to Settings → Authentication.

  2. Enter your IdP metadata URL or upload the XML metadata file.

  3. Configure attribute mappings (email, first name, last name).

  4. Enable SSO and test with a single user before rolling out to the team.

See your IdP documentation for the ContextQA entity ID and ACS URL needed to complete the IdP-side configuration.

Reviewing audit logs

The system audit log records all significant platform events: user logins, permission changes, test case creation/deletion, integration configuration changes, and API key generation.

  1. Go to Settings → System Audits.

  2. Filter by user, event type, or date range.

  3. Export to CSV for compliance reporting.
