You can now update existing SAML connections via the REST API with the new endpoint PUT /objects/saml_connection/{saml_connection_id}.

The endpoint replaces the connection with the configuration you send, following the same semantics as the other Setup PUT endpoints: the full configuration is required and attributes you omit are reset to their defaults. Updating a connection ID that does not exist returns a 404 error; use the existing POST endpoint to create new connections.
