# Workforce Providers

Open **Unified Identities › Resources**, filter **Providers** to **GCP Identities › Workforce Provider**, then select a row to open its details. Workforce Providers define how external workforce (human user, e.g., SAML or OIDC identity providers such as Entra ID) identities federate into a Workforce Identity Pool.

### Workforce Providers Details

Opening a workforce provider shows the **`Details`**, **`Attribute Condition`**, and **`Attribute Mapping`** tabs. The card title can carry a `Tier 0`/`Tier 2` badge, a provider type badge (**SAML** or **OIDC**) and a `Disabled` badge.

The Details tab contains attributes about the GCP Workforce Provider. The page also includes an **Issues** panel that lists any security findings related to the provider, along with a Risk score and Exposure Point.
