Shibboleth3 as IDP – Cloud SAML

Part 2: Setup miniOrange with Shibboleth3


Step 1. Setup Shibboleth3 as IDP


  • In conf/idp.properties, uncomment and set 'idp.encryption.optional' to true.
       eg. idp.encryption.optional = true
  • In conf/metadata-providers.xml, configure Service Provider like below.
    • <MetadataProvider xmlns:samlmd="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:metadata"
      id="miniOrangeInLineEntity" xsi:type="InlineMetadataProvider" sortKey="1">
      <samlmd:EntityDescriptor ID="entity" entityID="<SP-EntityID / Issuer from Service Provider Info tab in plugin.>"
        validUntil="2020-09-06T04:13:32Z">
        <samlmd:SPSSODescriptor AuthnRequestsSigned="false" WantAssertionsSigned="true"
        protocolSupportEnumeration="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol">
          <samlmd:NameIDFormat>
            urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress
          </samlmd:NameIDFormat>
        <samlmd:AssertionConsumerService Binding="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST"
        Location="<ACS (AssertionConsumerService) URL from Step1 of the plugin under Identity Provider Tab.>"
          index="1" />
        </samlmd:SPSSODescriptor>
        </samlmd:EntityDescriptor>
    </MetadataProvider>


  • In conf/saml-nameid.properties, uncomment and set default NameID as Email Address like this
    • idp.nameid.saml2.default=urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress


  • In conf/saml-nameid-xml, search for shibboleth.SAML2NameIDGenerators. Uncomment the shibboleth.SAML2AttributeSourcedGenerator bean and comment all other ref beans.
    • <!-- SAML 2 NameID Generation -->
    <util:list id="shibboleth.SAML2NameIDGenerators">
      <!--<ref bean="shibboleth.SAML2TransientGenerator" /> -->
      <!-->ref bean="shibboleth.SAML2PersistentGenerator" /> -->
      <bean parent="shibboleth.SAML2AttributeSourcedGenerator"
      p:format="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress"
      p:attributeSourceIds="#{ {'email'} }" />
    </util:list>


  • Make sure you have defined AttributeDefinition in conf/attribute-resolver.xml.
    • <!-- Note: AttributeDefinitionid must be same as what you provided in attributeSourceIds in conf/saml-nameid.xml -->
    <resolver:AttributeDefinitionxsi:type="ad:Simple" id="email" sourceAttributeID="mail">
      <resolver:Dependency ref="ldapConnector" />
      <resolver:AttributeEncoderxsi:type="enc:SAML2String" name="email" friendlyName="email" />
    </resolver:AttributeDefinition >

    <resolver:DataConnector id="ldapConnector" xsi:type="dc:LDAPDirectory" ldapURL="%{idp.authn.LDAP.ldapURL}"
      baseDN="%{idp.authn.LDAP.baseDN}" principal="%{idp.authn.LDAP.bindDN}"
      principalCredential="%{idp.authn.LDAP.bindDNCredential}">
      <dc:FilterTemplate>
        <!-- Define you User Search Filter here -->
        <![CDATA[ (&(objectclass=*)(cn=$requestContext.principalName)) ]]>
      </dc:FilterTemplate>

      <dc:ReturnAttributes>*</dc:ReturnAttributes>
    </resolver:DataConnector>


  • Make sure you have AttributeFilterPolicy defined in conf/attribute-filter.xml.
    • <afp:AttributeFilterPolicy id="ldapAttributes">
    <afp:PolicyRequirementRulexsi:type="basic:ANY"/>
      <afp:AttributeRuleattributeID="email">
        <afp:PermitValueRulexsi:type="basic:ANY"/>
      </afp:AttributeRule>
    </afp:AttributeFilterPolicy>


  • Restart the Shibboleth server.
  • You need to configure these endpoints in the miniOrange SAML plugin.
    • IDP Entity ID https://<your_domain>/idp/shibboleth
    Single Login URL https://<your_domain>/idp/profile/SAML2/Redirect/SSO
    Single Logout URL https://<your_domain>/idp/shibboleth
    X.509 Certificate The public key certificate of your Shibboleth server

Step 2. Setup miniOrange as Service Provider

  • Go to miniOrange Admin Console.
  • From the left navigation bar select Identity Provider. Then click on Add Identity Provider
    • Shibboleth Saml App
  • Select SAML tab.
    • Shibboleth Saml App
    You can get the metadata details of miniOrange app either by clicking on the link shown by "Click here" in the yellow block, Or you can also get the details after creating the app. Keep these details handy as we will need these in configuring Shibboleth.
  • Click on Show Metadata details under For SP - INITIATED SSO. You can either manually enter details or use Metadata URL or File
    • Shibboleth Saml App
  • Now to create SAML app for Shibboleth, go to the Add Identity Provider page and click on Import IDP Metadata. Import the metadata file that you will get from the SAML Login Information section of Shibboleth.
    • Shibboleth Saml App
  • If you don't have a metadata file, you can also provide the details manually. You need to configure following endpoints:
    • IDP Entity ID Entity ID of IDP
    Single Login URL Login Url from IDP
    Single Logout URL Logout Url from IDP
    X.509 Certificate The public key certificate of your IDP.
  • Few other optional features that can be added to the Identity Provider(IDP) are listed in the table below:
    • Domain Mapping Can be used to redirect specific domain user to specific IDP
    Show IdP to Users Enable this if you want to show this IDP to all users during Login
    Send Configured Attributes Enabling this would allow you to add attributes to be sent from IDP
  • Click on Save.

Step 3. Test connection between miniOrange and Shibboleth

  • Go to the miniOrange Admin Dashboard.
  • Go to Identity Providers tab. Then click on select button under the app you just created. Then click on Test Connection.
  • A new popup login window will open. Enter your credentials and login.
    • Atlassian Access Cloud SSO (Single Sign-On) Add Member
  • Now you will see TEST SUCCESSFUL in a new popup window. If not, then check if you have missed any of the above step.
