RayA.78577 (OpenSesame) asked a question.
We're looking at how we can solve the problem of customers having multiple IdPs and needing to route users to the right IdP. Does anyone have best practices for this use case for both OIDC and SAML IdPs?
Hello @RayA.78577 (OpenSesame) Thank you for posting on our Community page!
If your company has multiple IDPs, we would recommend to have a unique attribute for each company user and use that for the routing rule.
Let's say you have Customer A, B and C, all users for these 3 companies will have a CompanyID attribute but each with his own unique value.
Company A's users will have attribute CompanyID set to "value1", company B's users with have attribute CompanyID set to "value2" and Company C's users with have attribute CompanyID set to "value3".
When setting up the routing rule, you will select User match against attribute, and select the attribute as CompanyID with the value to the respective customer. Please also see screenshot attached as an example:
