I’m setting up an ADFS connection for the first time and I’m seeing this error in the logs. `Signature is missing (xpath: /*[local-name(.)='Assertion']/*[local-name(.)='Signature' and namespace-uri(.)='http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#'])`

I found [this very old post](https://community.auth0.com/t/getting-error-when-connecting-to-adfs-connection/34941), but it didn’t really provide a clear solution other then re-configuring the connection as SAML instead of using the built in ADFS connection. Is that still the solution?

Thanks,  
Sarah

Hi @sarah.hanley

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Can you send me via DM the name of the tenant on which you are testing the ADFS connection?

Thanks  
Dawid
