You can configure EasySSO to offer Single Sign on selectively based on the User-Agent string sent by the browser.

User-Agent filtering lets you set up inclusion or exclusion rules for browsers or devices based on the [user agent string](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent). The user-agent string is used to identify the browser being used by the client and provides information about the browser type, version, and operating system.

User-Agent filtering allows you to ensure that only the browsers you wish to have SSO access to your Atlassian applications will be offered single sign-on. For all other browsers single sign-on will not be attempted. See here for [why you might want to use User-Agent Filtering](https://techtime-website.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/EasySSO/pages/4555294). 

EasySSO User-Agent Filtering configuration screen includes a quick parse-on-demand function to rapidly convert known user-agent string into a format used by the filtering rules.

If you wish to use this feature see here on [how to configure it](https://techtime-website.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/EasySSO/pages/4620829).
