SAML simple example for beginners

Question

Answer 1

You can simply follow steps in this manual, which will help you create a simple SAML 2.0 federation between a local Service Provider and a public Identity Provider.

Once you set this up you can use it to follow messages sent between IDP/SP and also as an example of a SAML component built with Java + OpenSAML + Spring.

There are also many other good sources of information on SAML, like the Stefan's blog mentioned above.
