This looks like SOTI identity can be used to pass authentication between SOTI web-apps like SOTI Mobicontrol, SOTI Snap, SOTI Assist, SOTI Snap etc, but not the mobile apps running on Android, iOS.

After a user from a mobile device authenticated into Okta with lets say ZScaler Z-App, could the SAML token be passed to another SAML-based app like DocuSign, Slack or Zoom so that user does not need to re-authenticate when accessing DocuSign, Slack or Zoom? Just to give you an example MobileIron has this functionality with Access product https://www.mobileiron.com/en/products/access
