The <QueryTemplate>Â element provides the template from which the SQL query is built.
Schema Name and Location
This element is defined by the urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver namespace, the schema for which is located at http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-attribute-resolver.xsd
Example
Typically the XML "CDATA" construct is used to wrap the text because it avoids the need for special escaping of most characters.

<![CDATA[
SELECT * FROM people WHERE userid='$resolutionContext.principal'
]]>
</QueryTemplate>
