## Configuring multiple identity providers
Grafana allows you to configure more than one authentication provider, however it is not possible to configure the same type of authentication provider twice.
For example, you can have [SAML]({{< relref "./saml" >}}) (Enterprise only) and [Generic OAuth]({{< relref "./generic-oauth" >}}) configured, but you can not have two different [Generic OAuth]({{< relref "./generic-oauth" >}}) configurations.
> Note: Grafana does not support multiple identity providers resolving the same user. Ensure there are no user account overlaps between the different providers
In scenarios where you have multiple identity providers of the same type, there are a couple of options:
- Use different Grafana instances each configured with a given identity provider.
- Check if the identity provider supports account federation. In such cases, you can configure it once and let your identity provider federate the accounts from different providers.
- If SAML is supported by the identity provider, you can configure one [Generic OAuth]({{< relref "./generic-oauth" >}}) and one [SAML]({{< relref "./saml" >}}) (Enterprise only).
## Grafana Auth
Grafana of course has a built in user authentication system with password authentication enabled by default. You can
