After inputting the Tenant URL and token, I test the connection which succeeded.
Then when trying to save it gives me this Error:
"We encountered an error while updating provisioning configuration for ..."

There are two activity logs showing up:

one for "Update external secrets"
CORRELATION ID: bb7aac39-c2d8-45a2-b8e6-0d6346bd4d1d

one for "User Provisioning"

    Found what was wrong.
    The configuration data stored has a limit of 1KB (1024bytes). And the OAuth token I was using was larger than that.

    Reduce the amount of configuration data stored - All data entered in the Admin credentials section of the provisioning tab is stored in the same place as the SAML certificate. While it may not be possible to reduce the length of all of this data, some optional configuration fields like the Notification Email can be removed.

    Is this for a G-suite app? If so, this might be a known issue. If you send me an email at AzCommunity@microsoft.com I can open a support case for you to get this resolved.
