Administrators have the option to disable SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) for their whole organizations if necessary. However, itās crucial to understand the consequences before proceeding, as it significantly impacts how users access the platform.
šØ Disabling SSO will have the following immediate effects:
Users will no longer be able to sign in or sign up using your organizationās identity provider via SAML SSO.
Automatic user provisioning via SSO will cease. You will need to manually invite users to join your organization (if other automatic methods like Email Domain Authentication are not enabled).
Users who previously relied solely on SSO will need alternative login methods. They may need to set a password for their account (often possible via a password reset flow if they have a verified email) or be re-invited if they cannot log in otherwise.

If you need to disable SSO, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to access settings
