OKTA SAML Connection Order Priority- how will Splunk decide what role users take?

Hi Guys,

We are migrating our Splunk Authentication from LDAP to OKTA SAML. We have about 40 odd SAML groups setup in Splunk. Also, each SAML group has a different role.

Now, there are many users which are in multiple SAML groups. Question is how will Splunk decide what role that users takes?

I know that LDAP authentication will give precedence to the Connection Order of the LDAP strategy meaning if a user is in strategy#6 and #7, he will be assigned the role which is assigned to LDAP strategy #6. 

I don't see this option in the SAML. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Neerav
