I'm with Micah on this one. The problem statement clearly states that the third-party portal only supports OAuth, so that's the logical choice. No need to overcomplicate things.

The correct answer is A. Configuring SSO to use the third-party portal as an identity provider is the most straightforward approach since the portal only supports OAuth.
