# Update SAML Connection by Metadata URL

> Update a SAML SSO connection using metadata URL with the Stytch React SDK

export const action_0 = "update";

export const resource_0 = "stytch.sso";

export const organization = "Represents an instance or tenant in your application, typically mapping to each of your top-level customers.";

export const member = "Represents an individual end user's account within a given Organization, uniquely identified within that Organization by their email address.";

`sso.saml.updateConnectionByURL` wraps the [Update SAML Connection by Metadata URL](/api-reference/b2b/api/sso/saml/update-saml-connection-by-metadata-url) API endpoint. The `organization_id` will be automatically inferred from the logged-in <Tooltip tip={member}>Member's</Tooltip> session. This method cannot be used to update SAML connections in other <Tooltip tip={organization}>Organizations</Tooltip>.

<Note>
  **RBAC Enforced Method**

  This method requires a valid Session for a member with permission to perform the **{action_0} Action** on the **{resource_0} Resource**.

  Before using this method, enable **Member actions & organization modifications** in the [Frontend SDK page](https://stytch.com/dashboard/sdk-configuration). To learn more, see our [RBAC guide](/multi-tenant-auth/enterprise-ready/rbac/create-rbac-policy).
</Note>

## Parameters

<ParamField path="connection_id" type="string" required>
  Globally unique UUID that identifies a specific SSO `connection_id` for a Member.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="metadata_url" type="string" required>
  A URL that points to the IdP metadata. This will be provided by the IdP.
</ParamField>

## Response

<ResponseField name="connection" type="object">
  The [SAML Connection object](/api-reference/b2b/api/sso/saml-connection-object) updated by this API call.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="request_id" type="string">
  Globally unique UUID that is returned with every API call. This value is important to log for debugging purposes; we
  may ask for this value to help identify a specific API call when helping you debug an issue.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="status_code" type="number">
  The HTTP status code of the response. Stytch follows standard HTTP response status code patterns, e.g. 2XX values
