Research direction
To implement SSO login, first review pyVmomi's authentication documentation to understand how to connect using vCenter SSO credentials. Look at existing samples in the repository (e.g., connect.py) for patterns. The sample should create a simple script that authenticates and prints a success message. Maintainers may want a standalone file in the samples directory.
