NimbostratusSAML deep linking
We need to communicate URLs that have specific landing URIs to my customer. I presume that this service provider initiated SSO request needs to support this?
If so what is typically done to preserve the link, query string or cookie?
I've heard relaystate comes into play but not entirely sure when to use relaystate.
kunjanI think you can use RelayState.
Reference:
Optional: In the Relay State field, type a value. The relay state can be an absolute path, such as /hr/index.html; it can be a URL, such as https://www.abc.com/index.html; or, it can be anything that the service provider understands. The service provider uses this information to redirect users after they are authenticated. APM sends this value back to the service provider as part of the assertion response in the RelayState parameter. When the RelayState parameter is already part of the authentication request to the BIG-IP system, APM returns the value that was sent in the request. Otherwise, APM uses the value from this configuration.
