Translations:SAML/10/en
From Identity wiki
- The user tries to access a resource on the service provider.
- The service provider redirects the user to the identity provider for authentication.
- The user logs in to the identity provider.
- The identity provider generates a SAML assertion (an XML document containing authentication and authorization data) and sends it to the service provider.
- The service provider validates the SAML assertion and grants the user access.
