Gotta love it when the question gives you four options, and three of them are 'build your own thing'. Where's the 'call the IT guy and let him figure it out' option?

True, but Apex triggers can get complicated and may not be the best for scalability.

Ah, the age-old battle of 'build vs. buy'. I'll take the COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) approach any day. Less headaches, more features!

Option D with an Apex trigger? Now that's just asking for trouble. Better keep it simple and let the platform features do the heavy lifting.

Option C looks interesting, but building a custom REST endpoint might be overkill for this use case. I'd stick to the out-of-the-box solutions.

I'd go with Option B. Updating the SAML JIT handler is a more robust approach to sync user actions between the two platforms.
