As a prerequisite to creating an SSO Connection for UltiPro as a service provider in EmpowerID, you must have an Okta account.

Okta SSO application and connection.
...
On the navbar, expand Apps and Authentication and click SSO Connections. Now click on SAML.

You can view all SAML connections and create a new one by clicking the icon.

When selecting a SAML connection type, it's important to determine whether the connection will operate as an Identity Provider (IdP) or if it will utilize EID as its IdP. In this article, we'll use the Identity Provider option as our example, as we intend to configure Okta to function as the IdP. Please select the Default SAML IdP connection Settings.
The Service Provider (SP) is an application or service that depends on the EID as an Identity Provider (IdP) to authenticate and provide access to users. It uses specialized software to process SAML requests and responses, which contain SAML assertions from the IdP. This allows the SP to manage user access in an efficient manner.
The Identity Provider (IdP) is responsible for authenticating users and providing access permissions to EmpowerID. It generates SAML assertions for users after authentication, which EID then uses to grant or deny access to their resources.
