Robin Barnwell Can a Salesforce instance act as a Service Provider and connect to itself as an Identity Provider
I have two Salesforce Orgs. One is the Identity & Service Provider, the other just the Service Provider.
I can get SAML working between the Orgs. But setting-up the combined Identity & Service Provider Org fails everytime.
I think this might be an "undocumented feature" and you can't connect them???

If you set-up Salesforce as an Identity Provider then any communities created in that Instance cannot be part of the single sign-on circle of trust.
The only options are either to have 2 instances of Salesforce and connect them together via SAML or buy a new Identity Provider.
Pity its not documented that this configuration doesn't work as I lost 2 days trying to connect my Community to a Local Identity Provider.
Also seems a big hole in the techical architecure. I'm still not convinced it doesn't work and might try some more experimenting
