Enterprise Connections
These entities connect an organization to the identity infrastructure it already runs.
Entities
- SSO Connection: An organization's SAML or OpenID Connect configuration for its identity provider.
- Directory Connection: An organization's SCIM or directory synchronization configuration.
- Provisioned User: A user created or updated by the customer's directory.
- Group Mapping: A rule that translates a directory group into roles or teams.

Key Rules
- Connections belong to one organization. An identity provider can only sign users in to the organization that configured it.
- Deprovisioning takes effect promptly. A user removed from the directory loses access, and their sessions end.
- Signing certificates expire. Track expiry dates, and support rotation without downtime.
