!!! Overview
The SAML 2.0 specification defines the endpoints that are to be used for partner-to-partner communications but it does not define the way in which users can initiate a single sign-on action using those endpoints.
In a typical implementation there are specially formed URLs that incorporate the single sign-on action to take, the binding to be used for the action, and the location where the action should take place can be used for user-initiated single sign-on actions. These URLs are referred to as profile initial URLs.
Architects and application developers, who will design and implement their users' interaction with the single sign-on process, will need to understand profile initial URLs and incorporate them into their Web applications.
