    Hello @Arun KumarA.62811 (Customer)​ Thank you for posting on our Community page!

     

    At this time this is not possible to directly exchange an OIDC token for a SAML 2.0 assertion using a single API call or native token exchange in Okta. 

    You can also reach out via okta-devforum.pixtulate.com to check with our Developer team and see if there are other options for this request.

     

    Thank you for reaching out to our Community and have a great day!

  • @Paul S. (Okta, Inc.)​ thank you for the response , can u please check and confirm if below steps are possible by any means.

    • Paul S. (Okta, Inc.)

      Hello @Arun KumarA.62811 (Customer)​ Is this the type of flow you are trying to achive:

      • Authenticate the user via OIDC to establish an Okta session.
      • Direct the user to the SAML 2.0 application using a Service Provider (SP) initiated flow or an Identity Provider (IdP) initiated flow.
      • Allow Okta to evaluate the active session and automatically generate a SAML 2.0 assertion.
      • Ensure the application receives the assertion from Okta to grant access, bypassing the need for a direct token-to-assertion exchange.

      Then yes this is possible.

      • @Paul S. (Okta, Inc.)​ Steps we are following

        1. Generate OIDC tokens (id/access token) using OIDC native app
        2. send id/access token to backend server
        3. trying to generate saml from the OIDC TOKENS

        OUR end goal is to generate saml2.0 from oidc
