User will now start using SAML; any concerns?

I have a subset of users who will be moving from their email/pw login, to their SAML login. They will be using the same email addresses as previous.

Will I need to do anything to make sure they don’t lose access to their previous account? What will be the new flow for the user to make sure they keep access.

Best,

Travis

Hi @travis1,

There shouldn’t be anything you need to do once you have configured SAML login for your users.

The initial profile with email/password will still exist with the new SAML profile.

To trigger the SAML login for your users, you could specify the connection parameter in your login request.

Something like this:

https://YOUR_DOMAIN/authorize?
    response_type=code&
    client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&
    redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI&
    audience=YOUR_AUDIENCE&
    scope=openid profile email&
    connection=YOUR_SAML_CONNECTION_NAME

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Rueben
