SAML2.0 Azure AD B2C using redirect when I need it to use POST

I have a custom AD B2C configuration using SAML2.0. The configuration works correctly however the SAML is executing using a redirect rather than a POST. Due to URL length the POST is required since the redirect fails.

What is the correct key to use in the Technical Profile metadata to force the connection to use a POST rather than a redirect? Chat GPT suggested this but it doesn't work and I can't find the right key it in the official SAML config docs


I haven't found the actual correct key anywhere to tell Azure to use a POST rather than a redirect. Other AIs suggest different keys but none can link to docs on the topic.
