@infodata There is a bug in SAML authentication in version 2.1.0. It has already been reported to the dev team and they are currently working on it according to the bug.

> <https://github.com/opensearch-project/security-dashboards-plugin/pull/895>
>
> \### Description
> In the documentation for \[SAML\](https://opensearch.org/docs/lat…est/security-plugin/configuration/saml/#opensearch-dashboards-configuration) the SSO URL and the white listed URL is already updated to \`\_plugins/\_security\` while the routes in the security plugin still are on \`\_opendistro/\_security\`. That causes a 404 response when trying to login.
> This PR changes the route in the plugin and aligns with the documentation.
> 
> \### Category
> Bug fix and Documentation
> 
> \### Why these changes are required?
> To align with the new naming schema and have it working like it is documented.
> 
> \### What is the old behavior before changes and new behavior after changes?
> Before this PR the whitelisted URLs for SSO have to be set to \`\_opendistro/\_security/..\` also the configuration in the IdP to forward to the correct endpoint had to be \`\_security/saml/acs\`.
> 
> New behavior is that the URLs are now aligned with the documentation.
> 
> \### Issues Resolved
> \#836 
> 
> \### Testing
> \[Please provide details of testing done: unit testing, integration testing and manual testing\]
> 
> \### Check List

This is only present in version 2.1.0. Could you try version 2.0.1 instead?
