In a successful SAML Authentication, some unrelated and misleading errors are logged. For example, although there is no Artifact involved, you may see the below message: Failed to retrieve SAMLArtifact_b64 for SAML Agent:
Errors logs are misleading.
Universal conditional statements written to handle different use cases of SAML authentication such as POST or ARTIFACT bindings unintentionally prints few error logs.
None
All the errors logs can be converted to debug logs.
