RELAY_SAML_SSO_IDP Relaytag

Overview

Relaytags are ready-made widgets located on the WYSIWYG editor of a portal page, which enables you to quickly and easily add a wide variety of functionality to the pages of your Partner Portal. Relaytags can be used to display files and media resources, link to training courses, or enable a partner to monitor the progress of their opportunities. This article describes how to use the RELAY_SAML_SSO_IDP Relaytag.

Best Practice for Relaytags

While you can use more than one Relaytag on a single page, we recommend that you only do so if the Relaytags are querying different data. Interference and unexpected behavior may result if two Relaytags on a single page attempt to access the same data.

Before You Begin

Log in to the PRM admin site with elementTask level 2 rights or greater. The instructions below assume that you have previously created the page you wish to add the Relaytag to. In general, it is best practice to only display a single Relaytag per page.
You will need the user level permission to Add a Phrase and the appropriate language rights.
