Managing IdPs - Custom Authentication | Admin Guide - Zoho One

Deactivate/Activate an IdP

After you add an IdP, you can either activate or deactivate it.
If you activate an IdP, it will be applied to certain users based on the priority. They will then have to sign in with SSO via this IdP. If you deactivate an IdP, then users who were using this IdP will either have to sign in via a different IdP, or use their Zoho One credentials. The IdPs can be activated or deactivated at any time.
 
When you add the "Default" IdP, it will be activated for all users by default. If you deactivate it, users who were using that IdP to sign in will then have to sign in with their Zoho One credentials instead.
