Methods of Authentication: google incorporation

[Rafael_Machado]

Hello!

I was following the guide to integrate Google SSO with SonarQube. However, when I try to access SonarQube with my email, I receive the following message:
“You’re not authorized to access this page. Please contact the administrator.
Reason: This account is already associated with another authentication method. Sign in using the current authentication method, or contact your administrator to transfer your account to a different authenticaion method”.
I’m using the version 9.9.6-community.

1. Is there any way to have two methods simultaneously? Do I need to update the version for this?
2. If not, how can I use the Web API (api/users/update_identity_provider) to specify this new form?

Thanks in advance!

In particular, there are many organizations making the switch from LDAP Authentication to SAML Authentication for their applications. This guide aims to make it clear how to migrate those users from one Identity Provider to another, f…

I’m pretty sure the newExternalProvider value will be oidc, but you can confirm with the maintainers if you need.
