Hi! What is an SSO Service user type? What is the difference between an SSO service user and an SSO User?

Hi Jane,
**SSO User** : AutomationEdge SSO User Authentication is done by
Identity Provider. The supported protocol is OpenID Connect.
Every Organization/Tenant can have one unique AutomationEdge
SSO user linked to a particular Identity Provider user.
-: SSO Users cannot be created for Sysadmin role.
- :SSO Users cannot use Process Studio.
**SSO Service User** : The user type is available only if SSO is configured through
the Settings menu and the protocol selected is OpenID
Connect.
Thanks, Suraj

And SSO service user can only connect to AutomationEdge through API Post requests including Authentication.
