Reltio Connect

hi Folks,

Does anyone know what is the difference between the two Reltio SSO options, SAML and OIDC (based on Oauth2.0) and which one would you use?

Both are type of Identity federation.

OIDC Works on token based authentication and SAML works based on Assertion. 

If you are using SAML, Reltio will convert it into OAUTH internally using Cognito and make use OAUTH. 

If you are using OAUTH, your identity provider's configuration can be directly embedded into Reltio.  

both protocols are supported by most of the  identity providers.  One comment in using SAML in Reltio is , it takes the Email as a default username and there is no way to customize it.  But if you are using OAUTH, you can specify which attribute needs to be mapped as an Username in Retlio.

thanks, Gowthamprabhu. This was helpful.

But a follow-up question, in terms of setup effort for the SSO or in terms of user experience with the 2 SSOs, are there any nuances we need to be aware of?

We are trying to decide which one we should use for our setup and don't know if there is a way to identify which one is better suited for us.
