Setting a co-exist end date

External IdP integration enables users managed by the SAML 2.0 IdP to access their FortiCloud Accounts through external IdP roles defined in IAM portal. During the transition to external IdP user management, sub users or IAM users can be granted temporary access to FortiCloud using the co-exist date setting.

The co-exist date is the deadline until which sub users, IAM users, and external IdP users can access the IAM portal. Once the co-exist end date has passed, sub user and IAM user access are disabled.

To set a co-exist end date:
  1. Go to Account Settings > External IdP Role.

  2. Click Edit.

  3. Click the Select 'user co-exist' end date calendar icon. A calendar is displayed.

  4. Select the date that you want to limit the account to external IdP users only.

  5. Click Select.

  6. Click Update. A confirmation message is displayed.
