    JIT (just-in-time) user creation:

    • Because there is no syncing to a user database at the IDP, an authorized user may log in to the Control Center Alta Access without being created in advance.

    • If the IDP authorizes this new user login, they will be created as a new user within the Control Center Alta Access and assigned to our most restricted default role, Devices Read-Only.

      • An org admin must manually update the users' assigned role(s) to expand their permissions within the Control CenterAlta Access.
