Medius SSO Not Working When Working Remotely
Overview
Users may experience issues signing in to Medius SSO while working remotely. The login screen may not display the Single Sign-On (SSO) option, and attempts to log in via the Office 365 app portal may fail. This issue is often related to browser caching or incorrect login URLs.
Symptoms
- SSO option does not appear on the Medius login page.
- Login attempts via portal.office.com fail.
- No error messages are displayed, but authentication does not complete.
- Password reset attempts may indicate the account does not exist.
Cause
- Browser cache or cookies may interfere with SSO authentication.
- Incorrect login URL used (Office 365 app list instead of direct Medius link).
- Network or VPN connectivity issues when working remotely.
Resolution
Step 1: Clear Browser Cache
- Delete browser history, cookies, and cached data.
- Restart the browser and try again.
Step 2: Use Private/Incognito Mode
Step 3: Use Direct Login URL
Step 4: Confirm VPN Connection
- If working remotely, ensure you are connected to the company VPN before attempting login.
Step 5: Test Credentials
- Use your standard company username and password.
- If password reset fails, confirm your account details with IT.
Additional Notes
- Accessing Medius from the Office 365 app list may not work; use the direct link instead.
