SAML Requests and Responses in the Auth0 Log

Problem statement

Is there a configuration to allow for SAML Requests and Responses to be added to the Auth0 dashboard logs? When troubleshooting numerous SAML connections, having the Requests and Responses to aid in debugging is helpful.

Solution

Due to security concerns, Auth0 does not log the SAML Request and Response in the dashboard logs.

Auth0 SAML connections have a ‘debug mode’ toggle, which can be enabled. When enabled, Auth0 will generate a log that contains the user profile attributes sent by the SAML Identity Provider (IdP).
