Issue/Introduction

**For Clarity SaaS please click here for specific guidance**

Broadcom will be standardizing the authentication URL for all Broadcom platforms as part of operational and business opportunities that enables us to sharpen our focus on delivering industry-leading security software for our customers.

If you do not make the changes in your Identity Provider (IdP) configuration as per these instructions, you may experience authentication issues when trying to access Broadcom resources such as the Support Portal and product applications (e.g. Clarity PPM, Rally, SEP Mobile, etc.).

This knowledge article provides generic guidelines on changing the Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL. Please consult your Identity Provider (IdP) vendor documentation or Single-Sign On (SS)/IT team for detailed steps needed to modify the ACS URL.

Cause

Broadcom’s authentication service provider URL is changing from March 14, 2021, as follows:

Current URL: avagoext.okta.com
New URL: login.broadcom.com

Maintenance schedule is:

Start Date: March 13, 2021, at 09:00 UTC
