Overview

The IssuerRegex type is a PolicyRule which returns true if the entityID of the party issuing the attributes matches the supplied 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.
