SAML Authentication on APEX

Zack H.May 13 2025

I have a question regarding making SAML the current Development Environment Authentication Schemes. If I make SAML the current scheme, how can I access the Administrative Services? As this link gets removed, or is this not allowed?

If you made SAML current like me and don't know how to switch back, you can use this to switch back to using Database Accounts by running this in SQL Developer Web.

begin 
apex_instance_admin.set_parameter ( 
p_parameter => 'APEX_BUILDER_AUTHENTICATION', 
p_value => 'DB' 
); 
commit; 
end;

Notice how in the second screenshot Administrative Services is missing. How would I access administrative services if SAML is enabled as the Development Environment Authentication Scheme?
