To which type of external Identity Provider do you want to integrate? OpenID Connect is already implemented. SAML will be coming in the near future.

Here are the details around importing OP Metadata: [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Configuring+Identity+Providers#ConfiguringIdentityProviders-OpenIDConnectProviders](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Configuring+Identity+Providers#ConfiguringIdentityProviders-OpenIDConnectProviders)
