Required LDAP and SAML2 attributes for SSO
To successfully federate your IdP with ClickView using SAML2, you must expose the following LDAP and SAML2 attributes. These are the minimum required claim rules for basic user identification:
| LDAP Attribute | SAML2 Attribute |
|---|---|
| Email Address | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3″ id=”email”/> |
| Given Name | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:2.5.4.42″ id=”givenName”/> |
| Display Name | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113730.3.1.241″ id=”displayName”/> |
| Member Of | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:1.2.840.113556.1.2.102″ id=”memberOf”/> |
| First Name or cn (Common Name) | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:2.5.4.3″ id=”cn”/> |
| Sn or Surname | <Attribute name=”urn:oid:2.5.4.4″ id=”surName”/> |
Configuring additional attributes for campus or school identification
If you need to include extra information for your campus, school, or institution, you can expose and configure additional attributes. For example, the following can be used for user location:
| LDAP Attribute | SAML2 Attribute |
|---|---|
| ExtensionAttribute1 | <Attribute name=”ExtensionAttribute1″ id=”ExtensionAttribute1″/> |
The value for ‘ExtensionAttribute1’ may be something like: ExtensionAttribute1: North Campus.
