The choice you make on the Identity Mapping screen affects how your SP partner makes use of account mapping or account linking.
If your SP is using account linking,
establishing an attribute contract is not required. However, depending on your agreement,
you may choose to supplement the account link with an attribute contract. In this
configuration the account link is used to determine the user's identity, while the
additional attributes might be used for authorization decisions, customized web pages, and
so on, at the SP site (see User attributes).
Important:
If you have previously set up a configuration to use an attribute contract and want to change the configuration to use account linking without additional attributes, then the existing attribute contract will be discarded.
