3.3 Configuring a Connector for SSO Assistant

You can import and configure as many of the connectors for SSO Assistant as you need. However, users can store only up to 20 saved credentials. For example, you might import and configure 75 connectors for SSO Assistant. A user could only use and save credentials for 20 of the 75 connectors for SSO Assistant.
