Notes
Please ensure you follow the instructions in the Okta set-up documentation and that you send us your Entity Id and Metadata to our onlineservice@springernature.com.
Please note that if you have both Springer and Nature then they will have differing Entity Ids and associated Metadata so you will need to send us both.
The user experience, if you have both Springer and Nature set up with Okta, will also need to be considered. Information is available on our Single Sign On (SSO) Okta page.
