SAML updates

Blackboard Learn 9.1 Q2 2019

We’ve enhanced the logout process for SAML single-sign on sessions. When a user logs out of Blackboard Learn, a message appears and asks them to confirm log out for all associated apps in the session. Previously, the SSO session persisted until it expired. Users can choose to terminate their entire SSO session when they log out of Blackboard Learn to protect their security when using public or shared computers.

Additionally, administrators can now configure the SAML session age as unlimited for better compatibility with some Microsoft Azure configurations.
