Hi,

This affiliation is it specified in the IDP relying-party.xml or is it configured within the SP?  Is there any documentation on how to do this.

Thanks!

There is something called an affiliation, which is essentially a group
of SPs, and the IdP will generate *one* ID for the entire group.  That's
the only exception to what you've said.

No, there is no way to know, during attribute resolution, what will
ultimately be released.  However, once the ID is generated then the work
is done.  It's not something that happens on every request.
