Okta SAML SSO for elastic cloud

Questions
#1

Hi all,

I am trying to apply SSO to our elastic cloud service (BTW, I do not have any background knowledge about these)

Here is what I have done:

  1. I follow https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/saml-application-setup/overview/ and create an app

  2. In https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-securing-clusters-SAML.html , I am not quite sure which values should I modify in configuration (what I know is that idp.metadata.path, idp.entity_id should be changed corresponding to the ‘application’ I create. Even though I still failed in elasticsearch deployment. And the deployment detail shows only “Waiting until instances are running” and “rollback and cleanup” not helping for debugging)

  3. The same article from step2, I failed in kibana deployment (but I think this part has little to do with IDP)

please give me some suggestion, thanks
(the docs I need to read in Okta website, or some tutorial page etc.)
