Our organization would like to have users authenticate against a different system than Appian (at this point we'd like SAML 2.0 integration, but will substitute SSO or LDAP for expediency) but with a twist...

We'd like to have the user account created on authentication, when there is no account.

We'd also like to have the user account updated with the latest information, when the account exists.

In both of these instances we'd like to retrieve the user details from an internal database. Anyone have advice, experience or sample code to offer?

You can create users via process model using builtin smart service nodes, so irrespective of the SSO integration method, if you register the user in an external system you should be able to kick off a process to create the matching user in Appian (via WebService).
