How a SAML Affiliate Agent Handles Unidentified Users

The SAML Affiliate Agent may not be able to identify a user who tries to access an affiliate resource. This may happen because the user visits the consumer site and does not have an account at the producer site. This user is considered to be an unknown user. Depending on the needs of the consumer site, the SAML Affiliate Agent may or may not deny access to users who have not been authenticated by the producer.
