Goal

This guide shows how to save any attribute send by the identity provider as a Crowd attribute to use with APIs.

Prerequisites

• You use SAML 4.0.

• Your identity provider sends the attributes you want to map with the SAML response.

Guide

1. Go to the SAML SSO configuration.
   
   
   

2. Make that you are on Identity Providers tab.
   
   
   
   
   

3. Scroll down to User Creation and Update and make sure that Update from SAML-Attributes (Just-In-Time Provisioning) is selected.
   
   
   
   
   

4. Next, go to the Attribute Mapping table, click Add New Attribute Mapping, and choose the Crowd.
   
   
   
   

5. Enter a name for the Crowd attribute to called when added to user. Click Next afterwards to continue.
   
   
   
   

6. Now, you must specify the name of the attribute as sent via the SAML response. You can also transform the value with the given transformers. Click Apply to finish this step.
