Salesforce Updated Identity-and-Access-Management-Architect Exam Questions and Answers by zayden

This is because without My Domain, Salesforce will not know in advancewhat Identity Provider (IdP) to use for SSO, since it does not even know yet what Organization the user is trying to login to1. SP-initiated SSO is thescenario where the user starts with a Salesforce link (login page, deep link, Outlook Sync URL, etc.) and then gets redirected to the IdP for authentication2. Without My Domain, SP-initiated SSO requires that the user do an IdP-initiated SSO at least once first so that Salesforce can set a cookie in theirbrowser identifying the IdP1. The other options are not correct for this question because:

IdP-initiated SSO will work without My Domain, as long as the user starts SSO at the IdP and sends the identity information to Salesforce along with SAML protocol information that identifies the Organization and the IdP2.

Neither SP- nor IdP-initiated SSO will not work is false, as explained above.

Either SP- or IdP-initiated SSO will work is false, as explained above.

The best solution toprevent exporting reports except when logged in using AD credentials while maintaining the ability to view reports when logged in with Salesforce credentials is to use SAML federated authentication, treat SAML sessions as high assurance, and raise the session level required for exporting reports. SAML federated authentication is a process that allows users to log in to Salesforce with an external identity provider (IdP), such as AD, that authenticates the user and issues a security token to Salesforce. By treating SAML sessions as high assurance, Salesforce assigns a higher level of trust and security to the sessions that are established by SAML federated authentication. By raising the session level required for exporting reports, Salesforce requires users to have a high assurance session before they can export reports. This solution ensures that only users who log in with AD credentials can export reports, while users who log in with Salesforce credentials can still view reports but not export them.

The other options are not valid solutions for this scenario. Using SAML federated authentication and blocking access to reports when accessed through a standard assurance session would prevent users who log in with Salesforce credentials from viewing reports at all, which is not the desired outcome. Using SAML federated authentication and custom SAML JIT provisioning to dynamically add or remove a permission set that grants the export reports permission would require UC to write custom code and logic to implement the JIT provisioning and manage the permission set, which could increase complexity and cost. Using SAML federated authentication with a login flow to dynamically add or remove a permission set that grants the export reports permission would also require UCto write custom code and logic to implement the login flow and manage the permission set, which could introduce errors and performance issues.

The JWT Bearer Token flow is an OAuth flow in which an external app (also called client or consumer app) sends a signedJSON string to Salesforce called JWT to obtain an access token. The access token can then be used by the external app to read & write data in Salesforce1. This flow does not require storing credentials, client secret or refresh tokens, as theJWT is self-contained and includes information about the app and the user2. The other flows require either user interaction (Web Server flow and User Agent flow) or storing credentials (Username-Password flow)3.

Enabling “Allow customers and partners to self-register” allows guests to create their own user accounts in the portal. Selecting the “Configurable Self-Reg Page” option allows the administratorto customize the self-registration page to capture the required fields. Customizing the self-registration Apex handler to create only the user record prevents the automatic creation of a contact record until verification.
