Moving to a New Identity Provider

Retaining subject IDs in Naviga ID

Moving to a new identity provider will, most of the time, involve a new subject ID for the user, resulting in a new subject ID in Naviga ID as well. To retain the users Naviga ID subject ID, the http://infomaker.io/originalSubject claim can be added to the organization token. This claim should consist of the subject ID the user had in the previous identity provider.

{
    "sub": "subject-id-from-current-idp"
    "http://infomaker.io/originalSubject": "subject-id-from-previous-idp"
    ...
}

When encountering the http://infomaker.io/originalSubject claim, Naviga ID will replace the previous subject ID stored internally with the subject ID found in the sub claim.
