Security is a key advantage of SSO IDs, as they reduce the risk of weak or repeated passwords. With proper implementation, SSO systems can include multi-factor authentication, https://ssoidloginrajasthanportal.com/

There are are a bunch of choices for API documentation tools, especially if you are comfortable with markdown or MDX, GitHub, etc.Some to consider other than GitBook are: Mintlify, Readme, Docusaurus (self-hosted), and Jamdesk.
