Nirmata allows you to control the identity provider (IdP) method for individual user accounts. This provides flexibility in managing a mix of service accounts and accounts managed using a central SAML or OIDC-based IdP.


## Enabling Single Sign-On with SAML

To enable SAML SSO:

1. Click Identity & Access > SAML.
2. Click the **Key** icon in the SAML view.
