Runtime

At runtime, the Grid interacts with the IdP and IFS in these ways:

• SAML authentication - Browser clients are redirected to the IdP for authentication. After a successful authentication, the response is returned to the Grid from the IdP, including any additional claims that have been supplied by IFS.
• OAuth 2.0 token retrieval.
• IFS API calls - Grid will call IFS APIs to retrieve Security Roles and other user information. Grid applications may also call IFS via Grid APIs.
