You can configure an Informatica domain to allow users to use Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication to log into the Administrator tool, the Analyst tool, the Mass Ingestion tool, the Metadata Manager, and the Monitoring tool web applications. You can also configure an Informatica domain to use SAML authentication in Informatica Developer (the Developer tool).
SAML is an XML-based data format for exchanging authentication and authorization information between a service provider and an identity provider.
