-Enabling SAML with Okta Workforce allows your users to sign up and sign in to your Clerk application with their Okta account.
-
-To make the setup process easier, it's recommended to keep two browser tabs open: one for the [Clerk Dashboard](https://dashboard.clerk.com/last-active?path=user-authentication/sso-connections) and one for the [Okta dashboard](https://www.okta.com/).
+Enabling SAML with Okta Workforce allows your users to sign up and sign in to your Clerk application with their Okta account. It requires that a SAML connection is configured in both the Clerk Dashboard and Okta. This guide assumes that you have access to the Clerk app's settings in the Clerk Dashboard. The "customer" in this case is whoever has access to the Okta Workforce's app settings.
 
 <Steps>
-  ## Enable Okta as a SAML connection in Clerk
+  ## Create an Okta SAML connection in Clerk
 
   1. In the Clerk Dashboard, navigate to the [**SSO connections**](https://dashboard.clerk.com/last-active?path=user-authentication/sso-connections) page.
   1. Select **Add connection** and select **For specific domains or organizations**.
   1. Under **SAML**, select **Okta Workforce**.
-  1. Enter the **Domain**. This is the email domain of the users you want to allow to sign in to your application. Optionally, select an **Organization**.
+  1. Enter the **Domain**. This is the email domain of the users you want to allow to sign in to your app. Optionally, select an **Organization**.
   1. Enter the **Name**. This will be displayed on the sign-in form.
-  1. Select **Add connection**. You'll be redirected to the connection's configuration page.
-  1. In the **Service Provider Configuration** section, save the **Single sign-on URL** and **Audience URI (SP Entity ID)** values somewhere secure. Keep this page open.
+  1. Select **Add connection**. You'll be redirected to the connection's configuration page. Note that the connection is disabled by default.
+  1. In the **Service Provider Configuration** section, save the **Single sign-on URL** and **Audience URI (SP Entity ID)** values somewhere secure. You'll need to give these to the customer so they can configure their Okta app.
+
+  ## Configure SAML app
+
+  Now that the enterprise connection is configured in Clerk and the **Single sign-on URL** and **Audience URI (SP Entity ID)** are known, the customer's Okta app needs to be configured. At a high level, the process is:
+
+  - Create a new enterprise app in Okta.
+  - Add the **Single sign-on URL** and **Audience URI (SP Entity ID)** from Clerk to the Okta app's SAML configuration.
+  - Verify that the attribute mappings are correct.
+  - Assign selected users or groups to the app.
+  - Obtain and share the app's **Metadata URL**.
+
+  To get you started, you can use the following email template with detailed instructions:

-  ## Map Okta claims to Clerk attributes
+    **Step 2: Verify correct configuration of attributes and claims**
 
-  Mapping the claims in your IdP to the attributes in Clerk ensures that the data from your IdP is correctly mapped to the data in Clerk.
+    We expect your SAML responses to have the following specific attributes:
 
-  | Clerk attribute | Okta claim |
-  | - | - |
-  | `mail` | `user.email` |
-  | `firstName` | `user.firstName` |
-  | `lastName` | `user.lastName` |
+    - Email address (required). This is the email address that your users will use to authenticate into your app:
+      - Claim name: `user.email`
+    - First name (optional):
+      - Claim name: `user.firstName`
+    - Last name (optional):
+      - Claim name: `user.lastName`
 
-  1. In the Okta dashboard, find the **Attribute Statements (optional)** section.
-  1. For the **Name** field, enter `mail`.
-  1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.email` from the dropdown.
-  1. Select the **Add Another** button to add another attribute.
-  1. For the **Name** field, enter `firstName`.
-  1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.firstName` from the dropdown.
-  1. Select the **Add Another** button to add another attribute.
-  1. For the **Name** field, enter `lastName`.
-  1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.lastName` from the dropdown.
-  1. Scroll to the bottom of the page and select the **Next** button to continue.
-  1. You will be redirected to the **Feedback** page. Fill out the feedback however you would like and select the **Finish** button to complete the setup.
+    These are the defaults, and probably won't need you to change them. However, many SAML configuration errors are due to incorrect attribute mappings, so it's worth double-checking. Here's how:
 
-  ## Assign selected user or group in Okta
+    1. In the Okta dashboard, find the **Attribute Statements (optional)** section.
+    1. For the **Name** field, enter `mail`.
+    1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.email` from the dropdown.
+    1. Select the **Add Another** button to add another attribute.
+    1. For the **Name** field, enter `firstName`.
+    1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.firstName` from the dropdown.
+    1. Select the **Add Another** button to add another attribute.
+    1. For the **Name** field, enter `lastName`.
+    1. For the **Value** field, choose `user.lastName` from the dropdown.
+    1. Scroll to the bottom of the page and select the **Next** button to continue.
+    1. You will be redirected to the **Feedback** page. Fill out the feedback however you would like and select the **Finish** button to complete the setup.
 
-  You need to assign your users/user groups to your enterprise application. For example, if you were part of the Clerk organization, you would have access to users and groups in the Clerk organization. In this case, you could assign one or more users or entire groups to the enterprise application you just created.
+    **Step 3: Assign selected user or group in Okta**
 
-  1. In the Okta dashboard, select the **Assignments** tab.
-  1. Select the **Assign** dropdown. You can either select **Assign to people** or **Assign to groups**.
-  1. In the search field, enter the user or group of users that you want to assign to the enterprise application.
-  1. Select the **Assign** button next to the user or group that you want to assign.
-  1. Select the **Done** button to complete the assignment.
+    You need to assign users or groups to your enterprise app before they can use it to sign in.
 
-  ## Configure Okta as your Identity Provider
+    1. In the Okta dashboard, select the **Assignments** tab.
+    1. Select the **Assign** dropdown. You can either select **Assign to people** or **Assign to groups**.
+    1. In the search field, enter the user or group of users that you want to assign to the enterprise app.
+    1. Select the **Assign** button next to the user or group that you want to assign.
+    1. Select the **Done** button to complete the assignment.
 
-  Once you have completed the setup in Okta, you will be redirected to the application instances page with the **Sign On** tab selected.
+    **Step 4: Share the app's metadata URL**
 
-  1. Under **Sign on methods**, copy the **Metadata URL**.
-  1. Navigate back to the Clerk Dashboard and find the **Identity Provider configuration** section.
-  1. Under the **Metadata configuration** option, paste the **Metadata URL**.
-  1. Select the **Fetch & save** button to complete the setup.
+    Once you have completed the setup in Okta, you will be redirected to the application's instances page with the **Sign On** tab selected. Under **Sign on methods**, copy the **Metadata URL**.
+  </Copyable>
+
+  ## Add the Metadata URL in the Clerk Dashboard
+
+  After following the instructions in the email, your customer should have sent you the Okta app's **Metadata URL**. Now, you're going to add it to the Clerk connection, completing the SAML connection configuration.
+
+  1. Navigate to the [**SSO connections**](https://dashboard.clerk.com/last-active?path=user-authentication/sso-connections) page in the Clerk Dashboard.
+  1. Select the SAML connection.
+  1. In the **Identity Provider Configuration** section, under **Metadata configuration**, paste the **Metadata URL** that you received from the customer.
+  1. Select **Fetch & save**. Keep the page open for the next step.
 
   ## Enable the connection in Clerk
 
-  <Include src="_partials/authentication/saml/enable-connection" />
+  The SAML connection is ready to enable! Once enabled, all users with email addresses ending in the domain will be redirected to Okta at sign-up and sign-in.
+
+  > [!WARNING]
+  > If there are existing users with email domains that match the SAML connection, and there is an error in the SAML configuration in Clerk or Okta, those users will be **unable to sign in** when the connection is enabled. If this is a concern, we recommend coordinating with your counterpart to test the connection at an off-peak time.
+  > To make the connection available for users to authenticate with:
+
+  1. Navigate back to the Clerk Dashboard where you should still have the connection's configuration page open. If not, navigate to the [**SSO connections**](https://dashboard.clerk.com/last-active?path=user-authentication/sso-connections) page and select the connection.
+  1. At the top of the page, toggle on **Enable connection** and select **Save**.
