Play by Play is a series in which top technologists work through a problem in real time, unrehearsed, and unscripted. In this course, Play by Play: Understanding Salesforce.com Single Sign-on Solution, Greg Cook and Don Robins walk you through setting up SAML identity providers, security provider initiated SAML, and multiple OAuth flows. Along the way, you'll learn about sessions, tokens, and authentication codes as Greg demonstrates how to obtain sessions using each different protocol, and demystifies the many network flows and mechanisms used during these security interactions. By the end of this course, you’ll have a clear understanding of when and why you would choose any particular Single Sign-on approach, as well as which would best be suited for your specific integration
