extent analysis

TL;DR

The user "ruri.lee" provisioned through Okta SSO is not visible when trying to add them to a team in N8N, suggesting a potential issue with user synchronization or permissions.

Guidance

  • Verify that the user "ruri.lee" exists in the N8N user management system and has the correct permissions to be added to teams.
  • Check the Okta SSO configuration to ensure that user provisioning is correctly set up and that the user's information is being synced to N8N.
  • Investigate the N8N logs for any errors or warnings related to user provisioning or synchronization.
  • Confirm that the user "ruri.lee" is not being filtered out by any team or user filters in the N8N interface.

Notes

The issue may be related to the specific N8N version (2.17.5) or the Okta SSO configuration, but without more information, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Check the Okta SSO configuration and N8N user management system to ensure correct user provisioning and permissions, as this is the most likely cause of the issue.
