# Getting information about a SAML app in Yandex Identity Hub


{% list tabs group=instructions %}

- Cloud Center UI {#cloud-center}

  1. Log in to [Yandex Identity Hub](https://center.yandex.cloud/organization).
  1. In the left-hand panel, select ![shapes-4](../../../_assets/console-icons/shapes-4.svg) **Apps**.
  1. Click the row with the [SAML app](../../concepts/applications.md#saml) you want to get info about.

- CLI {#cli}

  If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, [install and initialize it](../../../cli/quickstart.md#install).

  The folder used by default is the one specified when [creating](../../../cli/operations/profile/profile-create.md) the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the `yc config set folder-id <folder_ID>` command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using `--folder-name` or `--folder-id`. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions.

  1. View the description of the CLI command to get information about the [SAML app](../../concepts/applications.md#saml):

     ```bash
     yc organization-manager idp application saml application get --help
     ```

  1. Run this command:

     ```bash
     yc organization-manager idp application saml application get <app_ID>
     ```

     Result:

     ```text
     id: ek0o663g4rs2********
     name: saml-app
     organization_id: bpf2c65rqcl8********
     group_claims_settings:
       group_distribution_type: NONE
     status: ACTIVE
     created_at: "2025-10-21T10:51:28.790866Z"
     updated_at: "2025-10-21T12:37:19.274522Z"
     ```

- Terraform {#tf}

  With [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/), you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.
  
  Terraform is distributed under the [Business Source License](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/main/LICENSE). The [Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform](https://github.com/yandex-cloud/terraform-provider-yandex) is distributed under the [MPL-2.0](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/) license.
  
  For more information about the provider resources, see the guides on the [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/yandex/index.html) website or [its mirror](../../../terraform/index.md).

  If you do not have Terraform yet, [install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider](../../../tutorials/infrastructure-management/terraform-quickstart.md#install-terraform).
  
  
  To manage infrastructure using Terraform under a service account or user accounts (a Yandex account, a federated account, or a local user), [authenticate](../../../terraform/authentication.md) using the appropriate method.

  1. Add the `data` and `output` sections to the Terraform configuration file:

     ```hcl
     data "yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application" "saml_app" {
       application_id = "some_application_id"
     }
     
     output "my_saml_app.name" {
       value = data.yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application.saml_app.name
     }
     
     output "my_saml_app.organization_id" {
       value = data.yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application.saml_app.organization_id
     }
     
     output "my_saml_app.status" {
       value = data.yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application.saml_app.status
     }
     ```

     Where:

     * `data "yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application"`: SAML app description as a data source:
       * `application_id`: App ID.
     * `output`: Output variables containing the app info:
       * `value`: Return value.

     You can replace these parameters with any others to get the information you need. For more on the properties of the `yandex_organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application` data source, see [this provider guide](../../../terraform/data-sources/organizationmanager_idp_application_saml_application.md).

  1. Create the resources:

     1. In the terminal, navigate to the configuration file directory.
     1. Make sure the configuration is correct using this command:
     
        ```bash
        terraform validate
        ```
     
        If the configuration is valid, you will get this message:
     
        ```bash
        Success! The configuration is valid.
        ```
     
     1. Run this command:
     
        ```bash
        terraform plan
        ```
     
        You will see a list of resources and their properties. No changes will be made at this step. Terraform will show any errors in the configuration.
     1. Apply the configuration changes:
     
        ```bash
        terraform apply
        ```
     
     1. Type `yes` and press **Enter** to confirm the changes.

     Terraform will create all required resources and display their output variables. To check the results, run this command:

     ```bash
     terraform output
     ```

- API {#api}

  Use the [Application.Get](../../idp/application/saml/api-ref/Application/get.md) REST API method for the [Application](../../idp/application/saml/api-ref/Application/index.md) resource or the [ApplicationService/Get](../../idp/application/saml/api-ref/grpc/Application/get.md) gRPC API call.
