+By default, omniauth-saml attempts to log the current user out of your application by clearing the session.
+This may not be enough for some authentication solutions (e.g. [Clearance](https://github.com/thoughtbot/clearance/)).
+Instead, you may set the `:idp_slo_session_destroy` option to a proc that performs the necessary logout tasks.
+
+Example `:idp_slo_session_destroy` setting for Clearance compatibility:

+```ruby
+Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
+  provider :saml, idp_slo_session_destroy: proc { |env, _session| env[:clearance].sign_out }, ...
