Hello, I Need help to answer the below questions. These are for a Pega project and for the SSO implementation with SAML 2.0. Many thanks.

===> Compatibility with the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), open and standardized protocol based on XML *
To exchange authentication and authorization information between security entities or domains

1- Which mode of SSO SAML the application supports, IdP-initiated or SP-initiated SSO.
===== > SP-initiated
2- What are the user attributes expected by the application.
===== >

3- What is the format of the "NameID" (identifier in the federation) supporting the application and what information is expected in this attribute.
===== >

4- Does the application wait until the entire SAML response of the IdP is signed or only the assertion (format of the XML message)
===== >

5- Is the encryption of the attributes and / or the assertion required?
===== >

6- Are you considering sending us a complete metadata file or a simple url
With possibly a public certificate to check the signatures of SAML messages?
