Login Endpoint | The IDP Login endpoint is the URL to which the service provider redirects users for authentication and login to the identity provider. |
Logout Endpoint Redirect | This refers to the IDP Logout endpoint Post URL, which is used for logging out users from the identity provider. In some cases, this feature might be optional or not supported by certain service providers. |
X509 Certificate | You have the option to either copy or download the X509 certificate, which is used for cryptographic purposes in secure communication between the service provider and identity provider. |
Algorithm | During the process of generating a thumbprint (a unique identifier) for the X509 certificate, users are required to select an algorithm from options such as SHA1, SHA256, or SHA384. |
X509 Thumbprint | This is the resulting thumbprint generated using the selected algorithm for the X509 certificate. The thumbprint serves as a condensed representation of the certificate and is used for verification and identification purposes. |
