@almatelecoms - Teams platform supports two types of authentication methods:

• For SSO, Teams uses the user's Teams identity to provide access to your app. Once the user has given consent, they can access the app even from other devices without having to be validated again.
• For third-party OAuth providers, the user is registered with the identity provider, which has a trust relationship with your app. When the user attempts to log in, the identity provider validates the user and provides them access to your app. Azure AD is one such third-party OAuth provider, but you can also use other providers such as Google, Facebook, GitHub, or any other provider.

If your customer's SAML provider also supports OAuth, you could use that for authentication. If not, you would need to implement a custom solution to bridge the SAML authentication with Teams. Also, you would need to configure the SAML authentication plugin to work with your SAML provider.

Could you please refer below docs and let us know if that helps? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/install-moodle-integration https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/lti/moodle-plugin-configuration?view=o365-worldwide
