The SAML2XMLObject attribute encoder encodes a XMLObject-valued IdPAttribute as a SAML 2 Attribute.

Reference

Attributes

Common Attributes

NameTypeDefaultDescription
encodeTypebooleantrueControls whether the output form will contain an encoder-specific indication of the data type of the values. In XML, this takes the form of xsi:type attributes, which greatly bloat the size and generally should be avoided for string-valued data. The default is to continue to output the information, but we suggest disabling it in newer deployments and after testing against existing services.
activationConditionRefBean Reference

Bean ID of a condition bean that determines whether the encoder should be active, described further here.
Mutually exclusive with relyingParties attribute and <ActivationConditionScript> element

relyingPartieswhitespace-delimited list

List of entity IDs for which this Attribute Encoder should be active.
