Logging in with credentials for SharePoint

Question

We are going to be rolling out a new SharePoint site soon which is the SharePoint online version. We also use Teams, Skype for Business, Outlook and some other things (Word, Excel, etc) whereas these applications do not ask the end user to authenticate. However in doing SharePoint testing, most times when a browser is open, it asks for a user to authenticate. Can it not do single sign on as our O365 Tenant already knows who is signed on and this is the only application that does this. Is there a setting in Admin for SharePoint that I have turned on (or off)?

Thanks

You may have different setup. We use Windows 7 with local domain, not Azure AD joined. We use AD Connect to sync users and enabled Single sign on there in its settings. Also had to add a few URLs to intranet zone. Specifically adding&nbsp;https://autologon.microsoftazuread-sso.com to intranet zone made it login automatically in IE. As per https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/connect/active-directory-aadconnect-sso-quick-start

If you are in the same tenant, it should automatically login.

Yep, if you have automatic login in Office 365 it should also work for SPO

It should, but SPO doesn't.&nbsp; For instance, I just signed in this morning here at work on my laptop.&nbsp; After signing in, my Skype comes up and does not ask for my credentials.&nbsp; I can go right into Teams no issue.&nbsp; If I bring up SPO in Explorer or Edge, it does work, but if I bring it up in Chrome, it asks for identity.

So this is only happening in Chrome? I think this might be "by design". As Chrome is not an MS product and they can't add modern authentication to Chrome. I guess it works in IE or Edge? At least in Chrome it doesn't ask for a password when SSO is enabled. So some part of modern auth does work.
