Authenticate M-Files with Shibboleth IDP and Duo Security's two-factor authentication

Question

I have the case who requests to authenticate M-Files with Shibboleth IDP and Duo Security's two-factor authentication. I cannot find any relevant information in both community and partner portal. May I ask if M-Files support to authenticate with Shibboleth and Duo?
Or if configuring SAML will be possible to authenticate Shibboleth IDP ?

Official support for SAML in M-Files has ended a couple of years ago, we recommend using OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect as the protocol since that's supported also by M-Files Mobile while SAML isn't. If the customer's IdP supports those protocols, you can find relevant material below. I recommend reviewing also the IdP's documentation for the needed configuration values.
