tfexy (tfexy) asked a question.
I am debugging a problem with the SAML integration with our web-app. I can use Okta to log into the app in a browser tab and the application works fine. If I go back to my Okta dashboard and select the app again it opens the app again in another browser tab. The app then works fine in the new tab. If I go back to the app in the first browser tab and attempt an action that causes a post back to the server, I am re-authenticated and taken back to the home screen of our app. Likewise, if I go back to the second browser tab and perform an action that requires a post back to the server, I am reauthenticated. Our app without Okta SAML SSO allows multiple logins from multiple browsers/tabs. Is this an Okta SAML SSO configuration issue, or is this simply how Okta SAML SSO works?
Thanks in advance!

I do not wish to restrict the user from opening the application in a new tab. What I need is for the app to be able to be opened and used in both tabs. Our application allows for it to be opened and used in multiple tabs. What is desired is to not have the user logged out of a tab when they open the application again in a new tab.
