The authentication provider allows you to configure external identity providers to authenticate users in your Salesforce org. This feature allows users to log in to Salesforce using their credentials from another trusted system, streamlining the login experience and improving security. This provider is beneficial when you already have accounts with external identity providers, and you want to integrate with the existing authentication mechanisms.
