Case 1. If both the return and idp_entityID parameters are included in the query string, the Service will determine the error handling URL (errorURL) of the given IdP and then redirect the client to the given return URL with the errorURL attached. If the IdP has no errorURL in metadata, the client is simply redirected to the return URL without any additional information.

Example 1: https://ds.incommon.org/FEH/sp-error.html?return=http%3A%2F%2Fincommon.org%2F%3Ffoo%3Dbar&idp_entityID=urn%3Amace%3Aincommon%3Aosu.eduImage Added

Case 2. If both the sp_entityID and idp_entityID parameters are included in the query string, the Service constructs a simple SP-branded error page from user interface elements in SP metadata. A link to the IdP’s error handling URL is included in the body of the error page and the user is encouraged to visit this IdP page for further information about the error that just occurred.

Example 2: https://ds.incommon.org/FEH/sp-error.html?sp_entityID=https%3A%2F%2Fcilogon.org%2Fshibboleth&idp_entityID=urn%3Amace%3Aincommon%3Aosu.eduImage Added

Visit the Federated Error Handling (FEH) Service home page to determine test URLs for various arbitrary parameter values.
