How to set up Azure AD as an SP when setting up SAML SSO

Question

I see that the way to set up Azure AD as an IDP is to use the Enterprise Application.

However, I have an external application that I am using as an IDP and I want to register Azure AD as an SP to implement SAML SSO, how do I set it up?

Additionally, is it not possible to do OIDC SSO as well?
