Hi, I am new in okta development, I have already asp.net MVC web site with custom authentication, but client wants have also ability with authentication using okta and saml, can someone help me on this? I have no idea how that will work, and there is no any documentation about that way authentication , is it possible? if yes, can anyone help me?

Hi,
My name is Silviu and I am a Technical Support Engineer (Tier II) at Okta.
This enters the DEV field, per your description, so I would kindly advise you to reach out to Okta Support via a case and we will then route it to Dev. Support. While Okta Supports Custom Auth. and SAML / OIDC Sign On protocol and offer a large variety of APIs we need to know much more details about the use-case and have them discussed with the Subject Matter Experts.
Wish you all the best in your work, Vruyr!
Thank You,

Thank you for your quick response
Here is the steps what I did and issue what I have:
1. I take one Okta trial account for 30 days
2. Have an asp.net MVC web application on local server
3. As admin I have added an SAML application in Okta with my website URL and assigned to the user
4. Now it appears in the app list for the user and then after clicking on app icon it is send a request to my web page and in request there is SAMLResponse
If I am on right way, After those steps I do not know how to check with Okta and get the associated user name and details, and after that I can do my custom authorization and allow users have access to my web site.
