Do they finally support SP initiated login (where I can still go to meraki.cisco.com and click login) or does SAML still only work with IDP intiated (where I need a crazy URL from my SAML provider bookmarked or I can't log in)? The latter is bananas for something I may need to log into in an emergency from a random device in a random location. Source: over 2 years ago
