SAML
What Is SAML?
SAML stands for Security Assertion Markup Language. It is a standard used to exchange authentication and authorization data between an identity provider and a service provider.
Why SAML Matters
SAML matters because it helps organizations:
- enable single sign-on across applications,
- centralize authentication flows,
- reduce password sprawl,
- integrate enterprise identity systems with business tools.
How Oobeya Uses SAML
In Oobeya, SAML belongs to the authentication and enterprise access layer. It supports federated sign-in and SSO rather than engineering analytics itself. That matters in larger organizations where identity federation is a prerequisite for adopting new platforms across many teams and business units.
