Overview

The PrincipalName type describes a PolicyRule which returns true if the canonicalized principal used to identify the subject matches the supplied string. See AuthenticationConfiguration for a discussion of principal name canonicalization during authentication. When filtering data resolved for SAML AttributeQuery requests, the value is produced via NameIDConsumptionConfiguration.
