Manage SSO Settings
This page will show IF Single-Sign-On (SSO) has been enabled for your organization, And you have been granted access to Manage SSO Settings as an Admin.
These parameters provide the ability for an organization to setup the Single Sign-On options for their own organization, without needing to rely on SkillsTX.
These settings are ONLY for identity SSO/Identity Management experts NOT for general administrators.
It's important to note that the specific steps and configurations may vary depending on the the IDP being used, and any additional security requirements you have. Many modern applications leverage standards like SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) or OAuth/OpenID Connect to facilitate the SSO process with Active Directory.
