Seeing a JIT error when trying to access my team with SSO

View as Markdown

You are experiencing the following issue

I see the following error when trying to join my Postman team: You need to be invited to join the team as JIT. Provisioning is not enabled for your team. Please contact one of the team administrators.

Reason for the Error

  • The first time a new user logs in to Postman through the IdP, a Postman account is created under two conditions:
    • The team has seats available
    • The checkbox Automatically add new users was enabled during SSO configuration.
  • When the team Admin sends an invite to someone to join the team, it is only when the invite is accepted that a new Postman user is created in the team. This is why JIT (Just in Time) provisioning has to be activated.
  • Note: The action of activating JIT is done by selecting the checkbox below.JITEnable.png

How to unblock yourself

  1. Ask an Admin of the Postman team to perform the steps below:
  2. Go to Team Settings > Authentication .
  3. Select Edit next to the Authentication Method .
  4. Enable the checkbox Automatically add new users .
  5. Select Save authentication .
  6. Once the team Admin has performed the steps above,
  7. Copy and paste your invite link to an incognito session in a browser.
  8. Select Sign in with SSO .
  9. Enter your team domain in the domain field.
  10. Enter your Postman account credentials.
  • Note: Enter the password associated with your existing Postman account, not your SSO password . This extra security step requires you to enter your Postman password to link your existing Postman account.
    • If you don’t recall your password, reset it on this page .
