MetadataAttributeExtractor

Overview

Indicated by type="Metadata", this AttributeExtractor allows well-defined content from within SAML Metadata to be extracted and passed to an application as an attribute. This plugin executes only when extraction of an <md:RoleDescriptor> (or one of its concrete subtypes) is done, which is dependent on the use of the metadataAttributePrefix <ApplicationDefaults> setting.
