Troubleshooting - User can't log in to SpaceIQ

Situation


When your business is set up with SFTP to populate your Employee Data and the User data comes from SSO Identity Provider (IdP) and there is a delay in the User Data from the SSO IdP.

The following will occur:

  1. Employee data is transferred via SFTP. This means the new employees are now in SpaceIQ.

  1. There is a delay of the User data from the SSO IdP, so the new employees' User data is not in SpaceIQ.

The delay can be caused by the external ERP System being updated before the SSO IdP is updated.

  1. Employee manually logs in to SpaceIQ. Now, the employee now has a username and password in SpaceIQ.
