SAML Identity Provider options

SAML Identity Provider options

Problem:  Customer or 3rd party vendor needs to know configuration options for setting up Identity Provider (IDP) initiated SAML.



Cause:  As opposed to Service Provider (SP) initiated SAML, Identity Provider (IDP) needs more information from vendor on what is expected from webNetwork.  Using IDP method can cause issues with "deep-links".  For example, if there was a "deep-link" used in an email that went directly to 3rd party application it would not redirect user to webNetwork login page.  This may or may not be desired behavior.



Prerequisite(s):
  • webNetwork 6.3.0.198 or higher
  • SAML 2.0


Solution(s):  Below are configuration options available in webNetwork.
  • Assertion Consumer (ACS) URL - received from vendor
  • Target Resource URL (also called RelayState) - received from vendor
  • Issuer* (optional) - received from vendor
  • Audience** (optional) - received from vendor
  • PublicKey (RSA 2048) - generated from our side, but can be shared with vendor if required
  • Certificate (SHA1 or SHA256) - generated from our side, share with vendor
  • SAML signature location - Response, Assertion, or both

* if not filled in will use value of https://www.opensaml.org/IDP
** if not filled in will use ACS URL
