SAML and Salesforce
Hi All -
We are looking to implement SAML SSO for our Salesforce instance. From what I've gleaned, it's best practice to set up a custom domain when doing this (we are currently using the generic domain). We are also somewhat concerned about our API integrations once we go live and enforce SAML logins - how does this affect those logins and integrations?
If anyone can comment on some of these, I would be most appreciative.

Once a custom domain is created, all old referenced domain urls will redirect to your custom domain. The only problem I ran into were direct references to Visualforce urls. The page would load but the action methods would be broken. Any direct url reference to Visualforce may need to be updated to point to the new custom domain address.

Thanks for all the great info.
One more question if you coudl help - what happens with API users in SF? Obviously they cannot use SAML, so how are they authetnticated? These woudln't be integrations with SF vendors, but rather API users for our own scripts, etc.
How does that work?
