Are you sure that you uploaded the SP public to your IDP(keycloak) and set
the same key for the encryption?

Hi Chendra,
i have open ticket below:
80041632 -IdentityPortal(SP) integrated using SAML - when Request Decryption key turn on, Portal login not working.
Will try with sign assertion only together with encrypt assertion.
FYI. I noticed other IDPs is providing this SAML option. where Signing is either Assertion or Response, there is no both option.

regards,
William

No customer reported this issue as of now. It supposed to work.
Can you enable only sign assertions and check whether it's working or not.
If problem persists, open a support ticket.
Thanks,
Chendra.

Hi Yogitha,
I have checked my Idp, the cert for encryption is loaded correctly.
I have some new finding, in my Idp_clientSP setting by default these 2 setting is turn on Sign document & Sign Assertion.
If i turn off both setting, then my SP decryption works(user able to login).
It seems like when SAML Assertion Encryption is turn on together with sign documents=on and sign assertion=on, IdentityPortal login doesnt work.
As per my understanding modern Idp & Sp SAML integration works together when all 3 -> assertion encryption is ON, sign document is ON and sign assertion is ON.

regards,
William
