About
The SAML User Mapping module is for mapping a SAML response attribute to user additional info.
The sections herein will guide you through logging into the Configuration Management section of KMS and enabling and configuring the SAML User Mapping module.
This module has no Theming component as it works entirely on the backend.
For technical support, contact Kaltura Customer Care. For all other inquiries, reach out to your Customer Success Manager.
Before you begin
- Enable and configure the SAML module.
- If the module is misconfigured, it is treated as disabled.
- If the option refreshOnLogin is disabled, the module will not update non-empty user additional info.
