APIs redirecting to SSO login page

[maurabagley]

We need to use the Sav4Sav REST connection to add Sav roles.  This is working fine in dev which does not have SSO enabled.  In production, where SSO is enabled, it is redirecting to the SSO login page.

Per the forum, we did the following:
1. Create User

2. Set localauthenabled=1 (true)

3. Change password via 'Admin Function' to desired password

4. Set passwordexpired=0 (false)

We then set localauthenabled=0 since the forum said that wouldn't hurt.

Using Postman, we got a valid Bearer token.  We updated the ConnectionJSON and it connects.  Note:  The ConnectionJSON has a testconnection step.

In Postman, we I run any of the APIs, I receive a 200 status but the body returned is the SSO login page.

Never mind.  All set.

To help future users who may experience a similar situation, what did you do to correct the situation?

@maurabagley - I'm seeing this too - can you please shared your solution?

We had a similar issue some time ago and it was resolved by turning off the SSO for a while. Then we tried to log in to UI with the technical user and found out that Saviynt wanted to set up security questions and answers for the user. API calls worked after security questions&answers were set up and SSO was re-enabled. Not sure if we could have set them using a DB update instead.

Hey everyone

Do we have solution to this issue?

In global configurations, uncheck following setting and give it a try.

I played around and have logged in using that user via SSO, as our SSO is configured to work on saviynt email so i put my team mate's email address in this API user and logged in and set the security questions.

I have set the localAuthEnabled as 1 and try to execute the authentication API but i always get Invalid username or password error although I am passing the correct info.

Thanks
