Access - Require fresh authentication for SAML identity providers

Cloudflare Access now supports requiring fresh authentication from SAML identity providers on every login. Users can enable this via the dashboard or set force_authn to true in the API to enforce reauthentication instead of relying on cached identity provider sessions.

Cloudflare Access can now request fresh authentication from a SAML identity provider for every login. Turn on Require reauthentication in the Cloudflare dashboard, or set force_authn to true through the API. Access will then set ForceAuthn to true in signed and unsigned SAML authentication requests.

This option is useful when an application requires users to reauthenticate at the identity provider instead of relying on an existing identity provider session. The default value is false.

For configuration details, refer to Require fresh authentication at the identity provider.
