Hello, we are using an external federated identity provider. Specifically, we are using the Okta oidc library in an Android application. Signing users out from Okta via the oidc library works fine but it is not signing the user out from the external identity provider. If we want to log in with a different user after logout, the IdP session is still valid and will just use the previous user’s credentials. Is there any way that Okta can sign out the user form the external identity provider? ---

At this time, Okta does not support this type of SLO. If you want to end a session at the user’s IdP, you will need to look into how this can be achieved based on your provider. ---
