Handler
TheĀ <Handler>
Ā element is used to configure generic SP handlers that offer miscellaneous functionality that doesn't fall into the categories covered by other predefined elements.
Typically, if a handler implements a SSO protocol, issues SSO requests, deals with logout, or implements other capabilities baked into the SAML 2.0 specification, it will not use the generic element to configure itself.
