### Overview

Get the identity provider overrides for a specific user in the organization. When a user has no overrides set, they use the organization's default identity providers. This endpoint requires the `user_access_manage` permission.

OAuth apps require the `user_access_manage` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#users) to access this endpoint.
