What is IdP initiated mode?
Identity Provider (IdP) initiated SSO involves the user clicking on a button in the IdP, and then being forwarded to a SP along with a SAML message containing an assertion. This flow would typically be initiated by a page within the IdP that shows a list of all available SPs that a user can login to.
What is a service provider IdP?
An identity provider (IdP) is a service that stores and manages digital identities. Companies use these services to allow their employees or users to connect with the resources they need. They provide a way to manage access, adding or removing privileges, while security remains tight.
What is SP and IDP in SAML?
There are two actors in the SAML scenario, the Identity Provider (IdP) who “asserts” the identity of the user and the Service Provider (SP) who consumes the “assertion” and passes the identity information to the application.
What is difference between SP and IDP?
The IdP creates an SSO Response with a SAML 2.0 Assertion containing user information as well as authentication data, and redirects the user’s browser to the SP with the message and the RelayState parameter. The SP validates the SAML 2.0 Assertion and creates an SSO session for the user.

How does SAML 2.0 authentication work?
SAML works by passing information about users, logins, and attributes between the identity provider and service providers.

What’s the difference between SAML and IdP initiated SSO?
IdP-Initiated SSO vs SP-Initiated SSO Service Provider (SP) initiated SSO involves the SP creating a SAML request, forwarding the user and the request to the Identity Provider (IdP), and then, once the user has authenticated, receiving a SAML response & assertion from the IdP.

What is the definition of SP initiated SSO?
SP Initiated SSO An SP Initiated SSO flow is a Federation SSO operation that was started from the SP Security Domain, by the SP Federation server creating a Federation Authentication Request and redirecting the user to the IdP with the message and some short string representing the operation state:
When does the IDP send the RelayState to the SP?
1. That is correct, the RelayState sent by the IdP to the SP is the one that the SP specified at the beginning of the flow, when redirecting the user from the SP to the IdP with the AuthnRequest and RelayState parameters 2. This is defined by the SAML 2.0 specifications: the InResponseTo attribute is not set in the SAML Response
