Logout Page

The logout page is responsible for terminating the user’s authentication session. This is a potentially complicated process and involves these steps:

  • Ending the session by removing the authentication session cookie in your IdentityServer.
  • Possibly triggering sign-out in an external provider if an external login was used.
  • Notify all client applications that the user has signed out.
  • If the logout is client initiated, redirect the user back to the client.
