External IdP roles

External IdP roles allow external users to log in to a cloud portal using their company’s user credentials with a third-party ID provider. External IdP users are authenticated by their company's ID provider. After the user is authenticated, they can access the cloud application based on their role.

Note

IdP roles are a limited beta feature.

Note

When an IdP user clicks Logout, they are only logging out of the portal, not their company's ID provider.

If applicable, the external IdP roles can be accessed from the Users page in the left-hand navigation menu. See Identity & Access Management Portal.
