API access for SSO protected Saviynt

[pradiphari]

Hi All,

We are on Saviynt v5.5SP5 version. How we can login to Saviynt using API user directly when SSO is configured?

You can generate token for user using Admin - settings - Web service Auth configurations

Or

You can reset password for user from admin - admin function & try keeping user as localauthentication =1 in users table

Thank you. 

is it possible to use Web service Auth configurations and generate access token using refresh token dynamically like we do for REST connectors? or any other other alternative for local api account.

Our security team has concern over using the local account.

We are also integrated with okta.

What we normally do is.. to access Saviynt via SSO and

You can get access token and refresh token from Admin -> setting -> webservice auth (hope i am referring correct name)

You can authenticate with this token in API
