SimpleSAML as IdP – SAML

Step 1: Setup SimpleSAML as Identity Provider

      • In config/config.php, make sure that 'enable.saml20-idp' is true. Example: ‘enable.saml20-idp’ => true
      • In metadata/saml20-idp-hosted.php, configure SimpleSAML as an Identity Provider by adding code below:
        $metadata['__DYNAMIC:1__'] = array(
            'host' => '__DEFAULT__',
            /* X.509 key and certificate. Relative to the cert directory.*/
            'privatekey' => '<YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE_NAME>',
            //eg. RSA_Private_Key.pem 'certificate' => '<YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY_FILE_NAME>',
            //eg. RSA_Public_Key.cer
            /* Authentication source to use. Configured in 'config/authsources.php'. */
            'auth' => '<YOUR_AUTH_SOURCE_NAME>',
        );

      • In metadata/saml20-sp-remote.php, register your Servider Provider like this:
        /* Replace example.com with your atlassian domain name. */
        $metadata['https://example.com/plugins/servlet/saml/metadata'] = array(
            'AssertionConsumerService' => 'https://example.com/',
            'SingleLogoutService'      => 'https://example.com/',
            'NameIDFormat' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress',
            'simplesaml.nameidattribute' => 'mail',
            'simplesaml.attributes'      => true, 
            'attributes' => array('mail', 'givenname', 'sn', 'memberOf'),
        );
