Procedure 7: Modify ADFS Microsoft Metadata
AD FS must be able to attribute values within the response to an authentication request before it can authorize
access via the Internet. You can configure these attributes for the ActivID Appliance.
Note: The ActivID Appliance IDP only returns the configured attribute values within the assertion if
the AD FS SAML Authentication request contains a reference to the index. That is why it is necessary
to add this attribute (
isDefault=”true”
) in the AD FS Microsoft metadata.
The following snippets are examples for the attributes '
mail'
, and '
firstname'
:
optional name and e-mail address.
NameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:uri" />
NameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:uri" />
