A SAML tracing extension:


Steps to Capture a SAML Trace

1. Launch the Tracing Tool

  • Open SAML-tracer from your browser’s toolbar.
  • It opens in a new window and starts recording requests automatically.

2. Reproduce the Login Flow

  • In a new tab, go to 👉 https://app.scopestack.io 
  • Enter your work email address.
  • The app will detect your domain and redirect you to your Azure login page.
  • Continue the login flow until the error occurs or you’re redirected unexpectedly.

⚠️ Important: Keep the SAML-tracer window open while you complete the login attempt.


3. Review the SAML Traffic

In the SAML-tracer window:

  • Look for HTTP POST requests with URLs that include /saml or /acs.
  • Click one of these entries.
  • In the right-hand pane, look under the SAML tab.

You’ll see:

  • A SAML Request going to Azure from ScopeStack
  • A SAML Response coming back from Azure to ScopeStack

✅ You should see your email under NameID and attributes like email, name, etc.
🚫 If the response is missing key fields or shows an error, that could be the source of the issue.


💾 Export the Trace

After you’ve captured the full flow:

Firefox:

  • Click the 💾 Save icon in SAML-tracer to export a .har file

Chrome:

  • Right-click in the SAML Chrome Panel > Save as HAR with content

📬 Send to Support

Please email the exported file to: support@scopestack.io
Include:

  • Your email address
  • Time of your login attempt
  • A short description of what you saw (error message, unexpected loop, etc.)

Subject Line:
SSO Login Issue – SAML Trace Attached


Required Azure Attributes

ScopeStack expects these in your SAML Response:

  • NameID = your email address
  • Attributes:
    • email
    • name
    • firstName (optional)
    • lastName (optional)
