Parameters

connection_id
string
required
Globally unique UUID that identifies a specific External SSO Connection.
display_name
string
required
A human-readable display name for the connection.
external_connection_implicit_role_assignments
array
required
All Members who log in with this External connection will implicitly receive the specified Roles. See the RBAC guide for more information about role assignment. Implicit role assignments are not supported for External connections if the underlying SSO connection is an OIDC connection.
external_group_implicit_role_assignments
array
required
Defines the names of the groups that grant specific role assignments. For each group-Role pair, if a Member logs in with this external connection and belongs to the specified group, they will be granted the associated Role. See the RBAC guide for more information about role assignment. Before adding any group implicit role assignments to an external connection, you must add a “groups” key to the underlying SAML connection’s attribute_mapping. Make sure that the SAML connection IdP is configured to correctly send the group information. Implicit role assignments are not supported for External connections if the underlying SSO connection is an OIDC connection.

Response

connection
object
The External Connection object updated by this API call.
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
number
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.
