Mike,

Yes, I think this is the case.  Is there a reason why or a situation in which you could imagine the IdP caring about the users' destination URL that prompts you to wonder?

Probably just my own "beginning bias" that a Target would have a '/' in it somewhere, and not just be a string of letters and numbers. The latter qualifies as a "relative url", but didn't match my biased expectations for what I'd expect to see in a Target. Which prompted the question.


Thanks,
Nate.

Is the same true when passing the parameter "target" to the IdP Unsolicited SSO endpoint? The IdP doesn't care what the value is, considers it an opaque string, and passes it to the SP as RelayState?
