What are the steps for using the SAML Assertion flow?

  1. Configure SAML for your org. SAML version 2.0 is required.

  2. Exchange a SAML assertion for an access token.

  3. Use a JSON parser to process the response and extract the access_token.

  4. Get an access token so that you can request an asset token.

The correct answer is: Exchange a SAML assertion for an access token.

Using the SAML Assertion flow requires the following steps 1. Configure SAML for your org, using SAML version 2.0. This is necessary for authentication and authorization. 2. Exchange the SAML assertion received from the identity provider for an access token. 3. Process the response from the authorization server and extract the access token. Option A, configuring SAML, is necessary for this flow to work but it alone does not complete the process. Option C, using a JSON parser, is not part of the SAML Assertion flow and is an incorrect step. Option D, getting an access token, is also a necessary step but it does not involve exchanging the SAML assertion and is therefore not the correct answer for this question. Option B, exchanging the SAML assertion for an access token, is the most direct and accurate step for using the SAML Assertion flow.
