Stytch - Auth platform for developers

The Create SAML Connection method wraps the Create SAML Connection API endpoint. The organization_id will be automatically inferred from the logged-in Member's session. This method cannot be used to create SAML connections in other Organizations.

Authenticated Method

This method requires valid Session for a Member with permission to perform the create Action on the stytch.sso Resource.

Before using this method, enable Member actions & organization modifications in the Frontend SDK page. To learn more, see our RBAC guide.

Method parameters

display_name string

A human-readable display name for the connection.

identity_provider string

Name of the IdP. Enum with possible values: classlink, cyberark, duo, google-workspace, jumpcloud, keycloak, miniorange, microsoft-entra, okta, onelogin, pingfederate, rippling, salesforce, shibboleth, or generic.

Specifying a known provider allows Stytch to handle any provider-specific logic.

Response fields

request_id 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.

status_code int

The HTTP status code of the response. Stytch follows standard HTTP response status code patterns, e.g. 2XX values equate to success, 3XX values are redirects, 4XX are client errors, and 5XX are server errors.

The SAML Connection object affected by this API call. See the SAML Connection Object for complete response field details.
