How to Configure SAML 2.0 for Automox
This setup might fail without parameter values that are customized for your org. Use the Okta Admin Console to add an app and view the values that are specific for your org.
Read this before you enable SAML
Enabling SAML affects all users who use this app, which means that users can't use their regular sign-in page. They can only access the app through the Okta service.
Backup URL
Automox doesn't provide a backup URL where users can sign in using their normal username and password. You can contact Automox Support (support@automox.com) to turn off SAML, if necessary.
