docs/data/reusables/saml/saml-accounts.md

If you configure SAML SSO, members of your organization will continue to log into their personal accounts on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}. When a member accesses non-public resources within your organization that uses SAML SSO, {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} redirects the member to your IdP to authenticate. After successful authentication, your IdP redirects the member back to {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}, where the member can access your organization's resources.

{% note %}

Note: Organization members can perform read operations such as viewing, cloning, and forking on public resources owned by your organization even without a valid SAML session.
