You can configure several instances for each SAML provider that you work with.
This can be very helpful for MSSPs who have customers who use
different authentication methods and Identity Providers.
When configuring multiple providers, the customer cannot use Just-in-Time or
IdP group mapping.
To configure a few different providers for Okta:
Go to Settings > Advanced > External Authentication.
Click the plus sign, select the Provider Type, and then enter the Provider name.
Configure the SAML parameters as required.
Repeat this procedure as many times as needed.
Sign in as a SAML user
Click Sign in with SAML.
In the next screen, you will be prompted to add your Login Identifier
(this can be either an email or a username).
