If you are an IdP operator that supports the Research & Scholarship category, now is the time to start planning your migration strategy to REFEDS R&S! |
R&S IdPs that migrate to REFEDS R&S now will be among the first IdPs to be exported to eduGAIN. |
To migrate to REFEDS R&S, an IdP that supports R&S completes the following sequence of steps:
Change your IdP's attribute release policy from this:
<afp:AttributeFilterPolicy id="releaseFullBundleToRandS"> <afp:PolicyRequirementRule xsi:type="saml:AttributeRequesterEntityAttributeExactMatch" attributeName="http://macedir.org/entity-category" attributeValue="http://id.incommon.org/category/research-and-scholarship"/> <!-- attribute rules here --> </afp:AttributeFilterPolicy> |
to this:
<afp:AttributeFilterPolicy id="releaseFullBundleToRandS"> <afp:PolicyRequirementRule xsi:type="saml:AttributeRequesterEntityAttributeExactMatch" attributeName="http://macedir.org/entity-category" attributeValue="http://refeds.org/category/research-and-scholarship"/> <!-- attribute rules here --> </afp:AttributeFilterPolicy> |
The latter configuration recognizes the REFEDS R&S entity attribute value instead of the legacy InCommon R&S entity attribute value.
That's it! That's all you have to do to migrate to REFEDS R&S! Once you submit the form declaring your support for REFEDS R&S, a multivalued entity attribute will be inserted into your IdP's metadata.
Important! Only the REFEDS R&S entity attribute value is exported to eduGAIN:
The legacy InCommon R&S entity attribute value
is not exported to eduGAIN. Only the REFEDS R&S entity attribute value
is exported to eduGAIN! |
See the R&S Entity Metadata wiki page for details about entity attributes in metadata.
