Generating the IDP Metadata File

Updated on 2024-03-07 GMT+08:00

Before connecting to HUAWEI CLOUD, the partner sales platform needs to prepare the IDP Metadata file (metadata file of the enterprise identity provider). The file contains the SAML public key and response path information. If a partner switches to HUAWEI CLOUD from the partner sales platform through the web UI, HUAWEI CLOUD can check whether SAML messages from the partner sales platform are reliable using this public key.

CAUTION:

Do not include sensitive IDP information, such as IDP user names, passwords, or other confidential information.

Example of the IDP Metadata File (Saved Using UTF-8)

An example of the IDP Metadata generated based on the SAML2.0 protocol is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Table 1 Parameter description

Parameter

Description

entityID

Indicates the unique partner ID.

You are advised to use a domain name and ensure that the value is globally unique. The value must contain https://.

Example: https://www.test.com

<ds:X509Certificate></ds:X509Certificate>

Indicates a certificate containing the public key, which is used for signature verification. To ensure security, you are advised to use a public key greater than or equal to 2048 bits. HUAWEI CLOUD uses the signature certificate in the IDP Metadata file to verify the credibility and integrity of messages transmitted during the authentication.

For details, see Generating a Certificate.

Location in <md:SingleLogoutService

The partner IDP server provides the session deregistration function. After a partner's customer deregisters a session in HUAWEI CLOUD IAM, a message is returned to the address in server redirection mode.

Example: https://www.test.com/saml/logout

Location in <md:SingleSignOnService

Indicates the address for the IDP server of the partner sales platform processing SAML requests during SSO. The server redirection mode is used. This address is defined by partners for receiving and processing SAML requests and generating SAML responses.

Example: https://www.test.com/saml/login
