Advanced Settings provides instance-level configuration options for system integrations, authentication, and email delivery. These settings are managed by a System Administrator and apply across the entire Blueprint instance.

To access Advanced Settings, navigate to **Settings -> Advanced Settings**.

Advanced Settings includes the following configuration areas:

- [Instance Settings](docId\:jY2p6N_-BM0N1wqfa0f0W)  — Configure global instance behavior, including processing limits, session management, and feature toggles.
- [Email Settings](docId:1yuluSxMHbA2e-FqwbCYd)  — Configure the email account and outgoing mail server Blueprint uses to send notifications.
- [Active Directory and Federated Authentication Settings](docId\:hYbGmnwQjzGPikFRQT9vo)  — Integrate Blueprint with your organization's Active Directory environment for user authentication and group synchronization.
- [Federated Authentication Settings](docId:9CQBRD0LcLDAe0LTVbUhR)  — Enable and configure SAML 2.0-based Single Sign-On (SSO) for Blueprint using an identity provider such as Microsoft Entra ID.
