Shibboleth Training

InCommon offers Shibboleth installation workshops.  See InCommon Shibboleth Installation Workshops for more information. Also, the Australian Access Federation has provided a recorded presentation, Introduction to Service Providers.

Identity Attributes

See InCommon Federation Attribute Overview for information about identity attributes that are commonly available from InCommon identity providers.

Discovery Services

For best results, service providers in the InCommon Federation are advised to use the Shibboleth Embedded Discovery Service (EDS), which is bundled with the Shibboleth SP software. Alternatively, you can use the centralized InCommon Discovery Service. Certain service providers (such as Enterprise SPs) that interoperate with a single identity provider may not need a discovery service at all!

For general information about IdP discovery, please consult the REFEDS Discovery Guide.
