Advanced Configuration
This is an advanced configuration feature. Most deployments can rely on the <NameIDMgmt>
The <md:ManageNameIDService> element is used to configure handlers that are responsible for processing name identifier management messages from an IdP. These are protocol specific, but generally fall into two classes: requests, which inform the SP of a change, and responses, which conclude a change event initiated by the SP.
Protocols
As a multi-protocol system, the SP itself is oblivious to specific management protocols; each handler provides the implementation of a particular protocol.
Implementation exist only for the SAML2 protocol.
Common Attributes
The following may be specified for all protocols and bindings
Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| relative path | required | The location of the service (when combined with the base handlerURL). This is the location to which an IdP sends requests to resolve artifacts. |
Binding | UTI | required | Identifies the protocol binding supported by the service. |
