Read this before you enable SAML
Enabling SAML will affect all users who use this application, which means that users will not be able to sign in through their regular sign-in page. They will be able to access the app through the Okta service.
Backup URL
Inflection.io doesn't provide a backup sign-in URL where users can sign in using their regular username and password. You can contact Inflection.io Support (team@inflection.io) to turn off SAML, if necessary.
