Creating a token is one of the roles of an Identity Provider in a Single Sign-on setup using SAML. SAMLis a standard protocol that allows users to access multiple applications with a single login. In SAML, an Identity Provider (IdP) is a system that authenticates users and issues a security token that contains information about the user’s identity and permissions. A Service Provider (SP) is a system that consumes the token and grants access to the user based on the token’s attributes. The other options are not roles of an IdP, but rather functions of the SAML protocol or the SP.
