Generate Metadata for SAML

[syruss kumar]

Hi All,

How to generate SAML. Metadata for IDP ?.

We haven't used any framework or tool for SP.We have done the below steps to implement SAML.

1.We created a servlet which is responsible for SAML request creation and redirection to IDP.
2.In the same way we have created a servlet which receives the response from IDP and manipulate the request.

I have googled and found OpenSAML is an API for SAML implementation in java but the problem is there is no proper documentation available.

Please suggest me how to achieve the above.

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

At last we have found the solution and done the implementation.

Meta data is just a piece of information passed between the two entities.
We have manually created the meta data by reading metadata SAML 2.0 specification.

We haven't used any frameworks or API but we achieved the same by using servlets.
