Hi Support Team,

We have client requirement to provide Signed application metadata for Shibboleth Integration from Auth-0 . How do we generate metadata and what are attributes we need from Shibboleth IDP and what all information required from the client ?

Hi @manikumar.k,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community.

Unfortunately Auth0 doesn’t provide Shibboleth specific documentation, however you should be able to set up a SAML connection in Auth0 with the Shibboleth IdP by following these steps:

  • Connection Name (this is set by you when creating the connection)
  • Sign In URL (provided by IdP)
  • 509 signing certificate (download from the IdP) - also check out this Knowledge Article

When it comes to uploading metadata in Auth0, this can be accomplished by using the Management API as described in our documentation, while you can also check out this community post, as well as this one.

The correct format of SAML metadata within Shibboleth can be found on their website under this section.

Additionally, if other issues might occur in the process of mapping the metadata you can also take a look at some troubleshooting steps which could be useful from this knowledge article.

Thank you for your post and I hope this helped.
Best regards,
Remus
