EduPersonAffiliation Archive

Generating eduPerson{Scoped}Affiliation from your internal directory

This page is intended to give you some ideas about how to generate eduPersonAffiliation and eduPersonScopedAffiliationi attribute that are useful to SAFIRE by reusing existing information you may already have in your internal directory services. What’s shown below are SimpleSAMLphp config snippets, but the ideas translate to pretty much all identity provider software. If you’re not using SimpleSAMLphp, hopefully the comments help you understand what is going on. All the authproc filters shown here are documented in SimpleSAMLphp’s docs.
