SAML2Base64Encoder

Jul 10, 2018

The SAML2Base64 attribute encoder encodes a binary-valued IdPAttribute as a SAML 2 Attribute. 

Schema Name and Location

This xsi:type is defined by the urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver schema 3.3, which is located at http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-attribute-resolver.xsd.

Prior to V3.3 supplied plugins were defined by a schema type (xsi:type) in the urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:encoder schema , which is located at http://shibboleth.net/schema/idp/shibboleth-attribute-encoder.xsd.  This is still supported, but every element or type in the  urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:encoder schema has an identically named version in the urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver  schema.
