Attribute Value Providers#

An Attribute configuration is made up of a name, an Attribute Value provider and optionally a transformation procedure. An Attribute Value provider is responsible for providing input attributes (which are attribute names), that can be used as-is or transformed before being included in the assertion. The SAML IDP Profile supports the following Attribute Value providers:

Script Attribute Value Provider

Let the value of the attribute be generated by a script.

Data Source Value Provider

Retrieves the attribute value using a data source.

Authentication Subject Attributes Provider

Establish the attribute value from the Subject Attributes of the authenticated user.

Authentication Context Attributes Provider

Establish the attribute value from the Context Attributes of the authenticated user.

Account Manager Attributes Provider

Retrieve the attribute value using an Account Manager.
