  1. In the Microsoft Entra ID portal, select Enterprise Applications.
  2. In the applications list, select Grammarly.
  3. In the application’s overview page, find the Manage section and select Users and Groups.
  4. Select Add user/group, then select Users and groups in the Add Assignment dialog.
  5. In the Users and groups dialog, select the appropriate users or groups then click the Select button at the bottom of the screen.

Finally, to enable SSO in the Grammarly interface, please see step 2 in this article: Set up SAML single sign-on

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

Note: There might be a delay in propagating the SSO parameters from Microsoft Entra ID. To avoid issues with configuring SSO, we recommend enabling SSO on the Grammarly side 1–2 hours after setting up the Grammarly app in Microsoft Entra ID.
