After some testing I can say that there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the request itself. I do have a few follow on questions though:

 

  1. Your GET request to the IdP has an MRHSession token. Is this from a previous request to the IdP, or have you configured domain cookies with another APM policy?

     

  2. Does your "AssertionConsumerServiceURL" value contain any special characters? An ampersand maybe?

     

  3. What product is providing the SP function?

     

  4. Can you share a more detailed description of your config?
