Overview

The IssuerRegex (basic:AttributeIssuerRegex prior to V3.4) type is a PolicyRule which returns true if the entityID of the party issuing the attributes (usually the IdP itself) matches the supplied Java regular expression. It's not commonly needed but is of use Pattern.

The primary use case for this is proxying when filtering inbound attributes, or in "multi-homing" scenarios in which the IdP may be representing multiple sources of attributes itself under different names.
