I'm not sure about the IP address of the IdP. Do we really need that for federating AWS 1AM Identity Center?

I agree with Elouise. Those are essential for connecting to the external IdP and centralizing identity management.

Alright, time to put on my detective hat. The SysOps admin needs the IdP metadata and the public X.509 certificate. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

I bet the person who wrote this question was having a bad day. 'The IP address of the IdP'? Really? That's like asking for the phone number of the data center.

To federate AWS IAM Identity Center with an external SAML 2.0 IdP, the SysOps admin needs the IdP metadata and the public X.509 certificate. That's a no-brainer!

I think the prerequisites are having a copy of the 1AM Identity Center SAML metadata and the IdP metadata with the public X.509 certificate.

Root access to the management account? What is this, a superhero movie? The SysOps admin just needs the relevant permissions, not the entire kitchen sink!
