Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is a data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between Sencha Web Application Client and Sencha Web Application Manager service provider.
For more information on SAML, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAML_2.0.
When a user enters an organization, Sencha Web Application Client sends the user to the appropriate identity provider (IdP). Sencha Web Application Client uses an HTTP redirect for SAML requests and an HTTP post for SAML responses.
