To declare  support for the REFEDS Research and Scholarship (R&S) entity category:

Log in to Federation Manager and click your IdP's entity ID in the list of Existing Identity Providers. 


Click "Entity Attributes" from the left navigation. The Entity Attributes section appears.


Check the box under the Assert Column for the row labeled REFEDS Research and Scholarship Support. Make sure the "Hide from Discovery" Entity Attribute is unchecked. If your user can't find your IdP from the list of available SSO options in the Discovery Service, s/he can't use it to sign in to participate in academic collaboration.

Remember to navigate to "Review and Submit" to submit your entity for publication. Your changes won't be published to the InCommon metadata until you submit it for publication.
