This applies to server and data center (DC) editions of Jira and Confluence. If you have a working SSO account, you can log out and get login page with username and password: Usually this requires that the system is configured to allow bypassing SSO authentication. * Try following linksURLs /login.action?auth_fallback or /login.action?nosso Read more on the subject at Atlassian * Enable default login page to bypass SAML in Confluence Data Center | Confluence | Atlassian Documentation * Bypass SAML authentication for Jira Data Center | Jira | Atlassian Documentation

I was able to use this:

There is a typo on step one, SQL is case sensitive for the columns so the 'bandana' does not work but 'BANDANA' does.

Hi @Javier Caporal welcome to the community.
Have you tried to login through a private browser window (also known as incognito).  This should allow you to bypass the SSO.
