Environment

Issue

When the Adobe Experience Manager is authenticated using the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) Single Sign-On (SSO), the user still can’t log out even though the link is /system/sling/logout.html.

Resolution resolution

Please make sure that the logout link on the AEM page is pointing to /system/sling/logout.html?login=<secured path>, and ensure that it’s not an AJAX call.

The right authentication handler is invoked by putting the parameter login=<saml secured content>, and you will be redirected to the right login page.
