Use a SAML connection on DEVICE CODE FLOW with a THRID PARTY APPLICATION

Is it possible to authenticate through a SAML connection when using the Device Code Flow with a third party application?

Hi @radu.simu , welcome to the community!

You should be able to authenticate in the browser portion of the Device Code flow against any connection that is enabled for the Auth0 application representing the third party app. The initial part of browser flow to load the Universal Login page would still be using OAuth, but Auth0 can then translate to SAML and back again via a SAML Connection.

If the application is configured as third party app in Auth0, you would need to promote the SAML connection to a domain level connection too:

Thank you very much for the answer, @sgo .
You said that the connection need to be enabled for the Auth0 application but as it is a third party application I can’t set a domain level connection to it. So how can I set the browser flow to use that domain level SAML connection.
For the Authorization Code Flow I was able to specify the connection in the query parameters of the
request to /samlsp/authorize but for device code flow I don’t see the solution.
