About Automatically update the user groups to which users belong

in API

[Background/context]
We use Microsoft Entra for single sign-on (SSO).
In other words, it is external users.
A large-scale organisational change is planned for July.

[Question]
Is it possible to automatically update the user groups that users belong to using Panopto's API without signing in to Panopto?

    As far as I understand it, there isn't a way to prompt Panopto to sync group memberships over SAML (etc.) without having the user sign in.

    It would be possible to programatically update the memberships of groups via the API, but that would be tooling that you would need to build. This is the route that we are moving toward. The delays and troubles with using SAML group sync alone are too disruptive for us so we are supplementing that functionality with a periodic delta/sync.

    This also seems like something that the Professional Services team would be able to assist with.
