If you encounter any issues, please look for a troubleshooting article on this page

Note: Azure AD might experience a delay in propagating the parameters on the Azure side. To not experience any issues with configuring SSO on the Grammarly side, we advise waiting for 1-2 hours after setting up the Grammarly app in Azure AD before enabling SSO in the Grammarly interface for all the changes to propagate accordingly.
