Use SAML Metadata

This page guides you through registering a new SAML application with MWARE IAM using the SAML metadata.


Metadata file configuration

This option allows you to provide the configuration data required for configuring SAML2, by uploading a metadata .xml file instead of having to manually enter the values. This enables faster entry of configuration data and allows the user to use the same metadata XML file for multiple instances of entity configuration.

  1. Select Metadata File Configuration.
    saml-metadata-upload

  2. Click Choose File, and select the .xml file containing the metadata for the service provider SAML configuration.

  3. Click Upload.

    Tip

    From MWARE IAM 5.5.0 onwards, the certificate can be added via the Service Providers screen in the management console UI using the Application Certificate field. This means that certificates can now be directly added along with the service provider instead of having to import the certificate to the keystore and referring to it using the Certificate Alias field.

    Therefore, when uploading a metadata file, the Application Certificate field in the Service Providers screen will automatically display the certificate that is embedded in the metatdata file. You can update or edit the certificate by editing the content within the Application Certificate field and uploading the metadata file again will override the existing certificate.
