Additional Notes for some SP

AWS Cognito

In AWS Cognito, the setup is divided into 2 parts, the configuration binding and the actual binding. AWS runs check while configuration and once those checks pass, only then Cognito allows SAML SSO Metadata to be saved.

During the configuration part, AWS will parse the IdP XML. For that purposes, during configuration time, the Binding Method should be REDIRECT. Binding method is under Advanced Settings.

Once the XML is updated on AWS side, then the Binding Method can be changed to POST for SSO to function.
