Metadata endpoints
==================
This document gives a short introduction to the various methods forms metadata endpoints can take in simpleSAMLphp.
The endpoints we have are:
Endpoint | Indexed | Default binding
-------------------------------|---------|----------------
`ArtifactResolutionService` | Y | SOAP
`AssertionConsumerService` | Y | HTTP-POST
`SingleLogoutService` | N | HTTP-Redirect
`SingleSignOnService` | N | HTTP-Redirect
The various endpoints can be specified in three different ways:
* A single string.
* Array of strings.
* Array of arrays.
A single string
---------------
'AssertionConsumerService' => 'https://sp.example.org/ACS',
This is the simplest endpoint format.
It can be used when there is only a single endpoint that uses the default binding.
Array of strings
----------------
'AssertionConsumerService' => array(
'https://site1.example.org/ACS',
'https://site2.example.org/ACS',
),
This endpoint format can be used to represent multiple endpoints, all of which use the default binding.
Array of arrays
---------------
'AssertionConsumerService' => array(
array(
'index' => 1,
'isDefault' => TRUE,
'Location' => 'https://sp.example.org/ACS',
'Binding' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST',
),
array(
'index' => 2,
'Location' => 'https://sp.example.org/ACS',
'Binding' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Artifact',
),
),
This endpoint format allows for specifying multiple endpoints with different bindings.
It can also be used to specify the ResponseLocation attribute on endpoints, e.g. on `SingleLogoutService`:
'SingleLogoutService' => array(
array(
'Location' => 'https://sp.example.org/LogoutRequest',
'ResponseLocation' => 'https://sp.example.org/LogoutResponse',
'Binding' => 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Redirect',
),
),
