I'd probably start here https://docs.fortinet.com/product/fortiauthenticator/6.6 as this will link to the admin guide to get you started with the install/setup as well as some of the other items you inquired about I'm sure. I'd also look at the Examples link as this will take you through numerous examples of use (or what was used to be called the Cookbook) that should get most of your other requirements of use (or close to it).

There are also quite a few YouTube videos dealing with FortiAuthenticator, so you can search and find plenty of content to get you started.

I agree with @Cajuntank
You need to understand the whole picture/architecture and special terminology only applicable to FortiAuthenticator(FAC), ex. FAC's realm is different from FGT's realm.
But for "3 -", you need to open a CS ticket and get them transferred (or scheduled) from FGT(s) to FAC.
