IDP Authentication Mechanism

[gansa1986]

Generally all IDP’s use Email and Password to validate the Identity. How does Okta solve this problem?

User 1 -> (EmailId1) -> Password(1) - Website X
User 1 -> (EmailId1) -> Password(2) - Website Y

Thanks

Hi @gansa1986

Depending on the service provider’s implementation, you can use one of the following methods through Okta as IdP
