How to Configure SAML JIT for Akamai Enterprise Application Access

  • The Identity Provisioning configuration created in this procedure can be linked to an existing SAML app.
    For details on the SAML app configuration, please see here.
  • To prevent conflicts in user attribute updates caused by using Identity Provisioning together with SAML JIT,
    we recommend not configuring the "SAML Attribute Settings" for duplicate user attributes when creating a SAML app.
    Note: Behavior depends on the service specifications, so please check with each SP for details.
