Looking good! I've reviewed the steps from the Okta side as well and it's correct.

What problem does this solve?
Here's how configuring SAML usually works:
Our docs today don't reflect that reality. They presume the the reader has simultaneous access to Clerk and the Okta IDP. As such, an application owner reading our docs needs to understand them deeply enough to re-write them into an email suitable for the IT-admin's consumption. This is time consuming and painful, because the App owner wants to avoid needing to internalize the nitty-gritty details of SAML - that's why they have Clerk!
What changed?
This rewrites the docs with the two above personas in mind.
The Application Owner is the primary reader, with access to Clerk. The instructions for the IT Admin (with access to Okta) are encapsulated in an email template.
