GroupSite SSO and Google Ids or InCommon?

Hello,
I understand that GroupSite offers an API for SSO. I'm interested in allowing my members to use their Google accounts or InCommon to authenticate to GroupSite.
Can anyone shed any light on if this is possible and what it would take?
Thanks,
Von

Hi Von,
We're sorry, Groupsites do not currently support users signing in with other accounts such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc. We plan to add this functionality in the near future.
Groupsites
do allow Single Sign-On (SSO) API access to Groupsite Enterprise
customers. Single Sign-On allows organizations with existing intranets
and member credentials to enable member entry into their Groupsite(s) to
originate from within an existing intranet or secured site where
members have already been authenticated. The Enterprise customer is required to have a database of group members on an existing Platform
that will handle authentication (login/logout).
If you need additional information on
Single Sign-On (SSO) API access to Groupsite for Enterprise
customers, please write to us at support@groupsite.com.

Hello Celeste,
Thank you for the quick response. I'm sorry to hear you aren't offering authentication via Google at this time but glad to hear it's in your plans as I know it's addition will get us some additional community members.
