Introduction

User Account templates are used to create a standard set of settings which can then be used to create user accounts through auto provisioning. When using a SAML to manage communication between an identity provider and Hornbill, accounts can be created automatically. An example of using an identity provider would be to use Active Directory Services to authenticate with Hornbill. When this authentication happens, if a user account does not exist in Hornbill it will be automatically created using this template.
