[All Identity and Access Management Architect Questions]

A service provider (SP) supports both Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) and OpenID Connect (OIDC).

When integrating this SP with Salesforce, which use case is the determining factor when choosing OIDC or SAML?

AOIDC is more secure than SAML and therefore is the obvious choice.

BThe SP needs to perform API calls back to Salesforce on behalf of the user after the user logs in to the service provider.

CIf the user has a session on Salesforce, you do not want them to be prompted for a username and password when they login to the SP.

DThey are equivalent protocols and there is no real reason to choose one over the other.

But what about the user session on Salesforce? Wouldn't we want to avoid prompting them for username and password?

I agree with Deonna. If that's the case, then OIDC would be the better choice.

I think the determining factor should be if the SP needs to perform API calls back to Salesforce.
