SAML user rights using custom attributes (Advanced)

These are the advanced way of setting up user rights. We recommend using SAML Access Profiles

This guide provides detailed instructions on how to configure and manage user rights within Aikido using SAML custom attributes. By leveraging attributes such as aikido_role, aikido_data_edit_rights, aikido_can_ignore, aikido_can_change_severity, aikido_can_manage_teams, and aikido_teams, you can control user permissions and roles from within your identity provider. This approach ensures that users have the same access in Aikido as set up in your identity provider.
