With that you can do some neat stuff like:

  • Generate an API token and take it over to Postman
  • Create some test SAML apps
  • Create some fake users and groups and play with Security Flows

Well that’s my quick and short first blog! I want to make this part of a series for how to setup a SAML and SCIM integration with Okta. More to come. ✌
