User16315316312329160066 (Customer) asked a question.
I have been working on integrating Okta SAML authentication into an Angular application. While I successfully integrated OpenID, I have encountered challenges when attempting to implement SAML authentication.
I have been unable to find sufficient documentation or resources specifically covering SAML integration with Okta and Angular. Could someone please provide guidance or share their experience in this area?
Additionally, I would like to clarify whether it is necessary to utilize a backend server for implementing SAML authentication.
Could you also outline the key steps involved in integrating SAML authentication into an Angular application?
Thank you in advance for any assistance or advice.

Hi @User16315316312329160066 (Customer) , Thank you for reaching out to the Okta Community!
This question is more appropriate for our dedicated Okta Developer Forum.
My advice would be to reach out via devforum.okta.com to take advantage of their expertise.
While we'll do our best to answer all of your questions here, this medium is more inclined towards Okta core products and features (non-custom/developer work).
Regards.
