* "X509Certificate (SAML2 Only)" - the signing certificate to be provided by the client. The formatting of this should be the certificate value without the "begin certificate" and "end certificate" header and footer lines. Also, depending on how the client-side system sends this value within the SAML assertion the certificate value will typically be formatted to just a single line but could also be multiple lines and so must be entered into SmartSimple in the same format.
* It is also recommended to disable the Session Timeout Alert setting within the Global Settings -> Security section as that feature would not be applicable to users logged in through single sign-on.
* By default, SSO acts as an additional method of authentication. If you wish to enforce the use of SSO, and restrict the regular username and password authentication, you can do so with the Global Settings -> Integration -> Enforce SSO setting which allows you to restrict a set of user roles to only be able to login through SSO.
