Trying to create a new Java application in Okta. However, it seems to only create a OAuth2 app. The application is created and it seems to be automatically assigned to all the people. But it never shows up on the UserHome as an icon. ---

Developer accounts no longer support SAML. If you’d like to create a SAML app, please start at [https://www.okta.com/integrate/signup/](https://www.okta.com/integrate/signup/). ---

Hi I created another account on [**https://www.okta.com/integrate/signup/**](https://www.okta.com/integrate/signup/). But it looks the same to me. I created a Java, took the default values. When I navigate to the user home screen, no apps is there. Thank you for your assistance ---

The last time I created a SAML app was a couple years ago. You can read [Get Started with Spring Boot, SAML, and Okta](https://developer.okta.com/blog/2017/03/16/spring-boot-saml) to see how I did it. I believe the app’s visibility settings is what controls if is shows up on your dashboard or not.

I don’t see that checkbox either on creating new application or editing an existing one ![Capture](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/oktadev/original/2X/a/a3c3c83244c6748c6a6a5126d564265515c90a15.png) ![Capture2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/oktadev/original/2X/c/c76ac8732e866ec242daeaa17d62e18e71989e8a.png) ---

It seems you need to navigate from the Developer Console to the “Classic UI”. There’s a toggle in the top left corner of the console. ---
