# 4. Download App & Connect

The GoodAccess Client Application (i.e. Agent) enables access to Systems (servers, applications, resources) running within your secure Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP). 

The Agent is essentially a connector to your GoodAccess dedicated Gateway. You received a Gateway in the [previous step](/getting-started/3.-sign-up-for-free-trial.md) by signing up for the free trial.

## Login

The Client Application (the Agent) supports two kinds of authentication:

* GoodAccess identity
* Third-party identity provider's SSO (Google Workspace, Okta, Azure AD, and more)

### GoodAccess Identity

Logging in with the GoodAccess identity requires entering your **GoodAccess Login Credentials:**

* Team Name
* Username
* Password

{% hint style="info" %}
**How to get GoodAccess Login Credentials?**

* Each team Member gets their own **GoodAccess Login Credentials** after they complete their invitation request.&#x20;
  {% endhint %}

### Third-party identity provider's SSO

Logging in with a third-party identity provider requires the administrator to configure [single sign-on](/configuration-guides/features/sso-scim.md) in the Control Panel.&#x20;

## Test connection

After successful login, click on the connect button and [test the connection](https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+my+ip). Your public IP address should be the same as the IP address of your dedicated GoodAccess Gateway.
