The objective of this section is to create a user called Britta Simon in SignalFx. SignalFx supports just-in-time provisioning, which is by default enabled. There is no action item for you in this section. A new user is created during an attempt to access SignalFx if it doesn't exist yet.
241173

242174
When a user signs in to SignalFx from the SAML SSO for the first time, [SignalFx support team](mailto:[email protected]) sends them an email containing a link that they must click through to authenticate. This will only happen the first time the user signs in; subsequent login attempts will not require email validation.
