Set the application URL for an application

Applies To: Windows Server 2003 R2

The application Uniform Resource Locator (URL) provides the path to the Web application in an Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) deployment. If the location of the Web application changes, you must change this URL to reflect the new location.

The application URL must match the return URL that you configure in the ADFS Web Agent. Therefore, if you change one, you must change the other.

Perform the following procedure on a resource federation server.
