BrandonG.01868 (Customer) asked a question.

Unable to Validate Incoming SAML Assertion: The attribute InResponseTo ID--- in the SAML response did not match any SAML request id previously sent to the Identity Provider.

I'm setting up a new SAML IdP with a new client. This one has given an error on login that I've never experienced. They are using an Azure CIAM setup.

 

"The attribute InResponseTo ID--- in the SAML response did not match any SAML request id previously sent to the Identity Provider."

 

They are getting the generic 400 error.

 

We have checked the SAML req/response and the IDs match.

 

Any ideas what could be causing this?


  • Hi @BrandonG.01868 (Customer)​ , Thank you for reaching out to the Okta Community! 

     

    I've been doing some digging for this specific issue and found two potential causes.

     

    >Certificate mismatch:  

     

    "Issue was resolved by uploading the right X.509 certificate from the ADFS metadata file into Okta. Successful verification was confirmed through a test user login, which mitigated the SAML error: "The digital signature in the SAML response did not validate with the Identity Provider's certificate."

     

    >SAML IDP Login issue caused by Custom login page configuration/conflict:

     

    -this required Okta Support intervention as it is dependent on a back-end feature flag being enabled. 

     

    So, please check the certificate being used and if that is not the issue, please open a case to work with our colleagues from the Okta Support Team.
