If your employer currently uses SSO for sign-in, you'll see this option if it's enabled. Employers prefer that you sign in through SSO when prompted. However, you can also choose to sign in with your work email via SSO or use your personal email and password, switching between them as needed.
At Cocoon, an account won’t automatically be created for you once your employer partners with us. Here are the steps to follow to create your account:
Step 1:
Your employer will provide you with a link to create your Cocoon account. It will look like this: app.cocoon.com/[youremployerslug].
Step 2:
This link will take you to your employer's dashboard to create your account. Select "Get started."
Step 3:
Once "Get started" is selected, you’ll be asked to provide your work email, first name, and last name. This is what we’ll use to link you to your employer. You’ll receive an email to your work email to confirm it.
If you're unable to confirm your work email, there will be a button to send a request for your HR team to confirm it on their end, or you can reach out to our Cocoon support team at [email protected] to manually confirm it.
Step 4:
After confirming your work email, you'll be asked to enter your personal email and create a password. An email will be sent to your personal email to confirm it. Once confirmed, hit "Create account" and you'll be ready to start designing your leave.
Your Cocoon account has then been created!
Signing in to Cocoon:
Now that your account is created you can head to your employers URL app.cocoon.com/[youremployerslug].
Step 1: Select 'Sign in'
Step 2: Enter your work or personal email
Tip: If you prefer to sign in with your personal email and password, enter your personal email here so it automatically populates in the correct field on the next screen.
Step 3: Sign in via SSO or personal email
Common Questions:
What if I leave my company or get terminated? Will I still have access to my Cocoon account?
Since you're using your personal email, you’ll always be able to log in to view your leave plan history. Once we're notified of your work end date, you'll receive a handoff email to close things out, so you can take care of anything you might need outside of Cocoon.
I created my Cocoon account, and I see the option to sign in with Google. Can I do that instead?
Only use "Sign in with Google" if your employer uses Google Workspace for secure sign-in. In that case, be sure to use your work email.
