JIT provisioning automatically creates a user account in QR Dex the first time they sign in via SSO. This means you do not need to manually create accounts for each team member. Once a user is assigned to the QR Dex app in your identity provider (Okta or Microsoft Entra ID), their account is provisioned on their first login and they are added to your team instantly.
