Similar question to Question 40. C should be the answer.

Both questions say to check the SAML metadata (endpoint URLs and certificates) on the Cloud Identity Engine and the IdP. The login works at the IdP but fails on the way back, so the two sides don’t trust each other’s SAML setup. A 400 means the request was rejected as malformed or invalid, which fits a bad URL or mismatched certificate. The docs show the setup works by downloading the SP metadata from the Cloud Identity Engine and uploading it to the IdP.
