Question 1
Single answerWhat information does the 'Relaystate' parameter contain in sp-Initiated Single Sign-on?
-
Option A:Correct
Reference to a URL redirect parameter at the identity provider.
-
Option B:Correct
Reference to a URL redirect parameter at the service provider.
-
Option C:Correct
Reference to the login address URL of the service provider.
-
Option D:Correct
Reference to the login address URL of the identity Provider.
Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Explanation
In SP-initiated Single Sign-On (SSO), the RelayState parameter is used by the Identity Provider (IdP) to redirect the user back to a specific page at the Service Provider (SP) after successful authentication. It essentially stores the target URL or state information from the Service Provider side, so that once login is complete, the user is returned to the correct destination within the SP application. It does not represent the login URL of either provider, nor does it originate from the IdP redirect logic. Therefore, the correct understanding is that RelayState is tied to the Service Provider’s redirect destination URL or state information.

Question 3
Multiple answersUniversal Containers (UC) has an e-commerce website where customers can buy products, make
payments and manage their accounts. UC decides to build a Customer Community on Salesforce
and wants to allow the customers to access the community from their accounts without logging in
again. UC decides to implement an SP-initiated SSO using a SAML-compliant Idp. In this scenario
where Salesforce is the Service Provider, which two activities must be performed in Salesforce to
make SP- initiated SSO work? Choose 2 answers-
Option A:Correct
Configure SAML SSO settings.
-
Option B:Correct
Create a Connected App.
-
Option C:Correct
Configure Delegated Authentication.
-
Option D:Correct
Set up My Domain.
Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: A, D
Explanation
For SP-initiated SAML Single Sign-On in Salesforce (where Salesforce is the Service Provider), the system must be configured to trust and communicate with the external Identity Provider (IdP). Option A (Configure SAML SSO settings) is required because Salesforce must define the SAML configuration, including issuer, certificate, and IdP login URL, to enable SSO authentication. Option D (Set up My Domain) is also required because Salesforce SSO (especially SAML-based and SP-initiated flows) depends on My Domain to provide a custom login URL that supports redirection and authentication routing. Option B (Create a Connected App) is incorrect because Connected Apps are typically used when Salesforce acts as the Identity Provider, not the Service Provider in this context. Option C (Delegated Authentication) is not used for SAML-based SSO since it is an older authentication method that relies on external validation via API rather than SAML assertions.

Question 4
Single answerHow should an Architect automatically redirect users to the login page of the external Identity
provider when using an SP-Initiated SAML flow with Salesforce as a Service Provider?-
Option A:Correct
Use visualforce as the landing page for My Domain to redirect users to the Identity Provider login
Page. -
Option B:Correct
Enable the Redirect to the Identity Provider setting under Authentication Services on the My
domain Configuration. -
Option C:Correct
Remove the Login page from the list of Authentication Services on the My Domain configuration.
-
Option D:Correct
Set the Identity Provider as default and enable the Redirect to the Identity Provider setting on the
SAML Configuration
Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
In an SP-initiated SAML SSO flow in Salesforce, when a user tries to access Salesforce (Service Provider), the system must automatically redirect the user to the external Identity Provider for authentication. This behavior is enabled through the My Domain authentication configuration, specifically by turning on the “Redirect to the Identity Provider” setting under Authentication Services. This ensures that instead of showing the Salesforce login page, users are seamlessly redirected to the IdP login page. Option A is incorrect because Visualforce pages are not required for SSO routing. Option C is incorrect because removing the login page does not control IdP redirection behavior. Option D is incorrect because marking an IdP as default is not what triggers automatic redirection in SP-initiated flows.

Question 5
Single answerUniversal Containers (UC) has a classified information system that its call center team uses only
when they are working on a case with a record type "Classified"
. They are only allowed to access
the system when they own an open "Classified" case, and their access to the system is removed
at all other times. They would like to implement SAML SSO eith Salesforce as the Idp, and
automatically allow or deny the staff's access to the classified information system based on
whether they currently own an open "Classified" case record when they try to access the system
using SSO. What is the recommended solution for automatically allowing or denying the access to
the classified information system based on the open "classified" case record criteria?-
Option A:Correct
Use Salesforce reports to identify users that currently own open "Classified" cases and should be granted access to the Classified information system.
-
Option B:Correct
Use Apex trigger on case to dynamically assign permission sets that grant access when a user is assigned an open "Classified" case, and remove it when the case is closed.
-
Option C:Correct
Use Custom SAML JIT Provisioning to dynamically query the user's open "Classified" cases when attempting to access the classified information system.
-
Option D:Correct
Use a Common Connected App Handler using Apex to dynamically allow access to the system based on whether the staff owns any open "Classified" Cases.
