the awareness module must use ldap, no other way around as its deeply rooted in that technology. in the case of policy portal, when group authorization is not used on any of the policies it could use SAML…that requires a logic:
on system / settings / authentication / policy portal … you could only enable saml/oauth (as inherited from the main authentication) if no existing policy has “group authorization” as a setting, otherwise this option is simply not possible.
