What must administrators configure to allow end users to log in using organization IdP credentials on iOS/iPadOS and macOS?

In order for end users to log in using organization Identity Provider (IdP) credentials on iOS/iPadOS and macOS devices, it is essential to configure ABM (Apple Business Manager) alongside the specific authentication settings that enable this functionality.

Apple Business Manager facilitates the management and deployment of Apple devices within organizations, ensuring they can integrate with various services, including identity management systems. However, merely having ABM in place is not sufficient for allowing users to authenticate using their IdP credentials. The correct configuration must also include authentication settings that define how devices will connect to the organization's IdP and handle user credentials correctly.

This dual requirement ensures that the managed devices recognize the IdP framework and can facilitate secure access for users. Without setting the specific authentication parameters, even with ABM deployed, users would not be able to employ their organizational credentials.

This underscores the importance of both components working synergistically to achieve seamless authentication on company-managed devices.
