User types
By default, any user who uses a SSO integration to sign up inside of a portal will automatically be provisioned a learner user account, meaning that they will be treated as a learner within the portal and have all the same user experience a normal learner would.
Some specific protocols do support provisioning educator accounts but require additional protocol specific configuration.
