A human readable name for an encoded SAML 2 attribute.

The attribute name of the encoded SAML 1 or 2 attribute.

How the attribute is encoded in the SAML assertion.

Simple attributes are as the source attribute (see Source below).

eduPersonEntitlement has the value urn:mace:dir:entitlement:common-lib-terms for all people in Oak. Members with a student record will also have the value urn:mace:csoresearch.com:myinterfase:entitlement:student.

eduPersonAffiliation is as the eduPersonAffiliation attribute in Oak, with an added staff affiliation for non-students.

 

Scoped attributes will be as the source attribute, but with @ox.ac.uk appended.

An alternate presentation of the computedId required for some commercial SAML SPs. implementations.

The source of the attribute. UNIQUE_ID is the Oxford SSO Username, computedId is an anonymous, persistent, per-SP hashed user identifier.

All other attributes are sourced from Oak LDAP. Please see the Oak LDAP schema for more information.

By default we release a very minimal set of information. A released value of ANY indicates that any value for the attribute will be released to all SPs. A released value of NONE indicates that, by default, the attribute is not released.

eduPersonScopedAffiliation is filtered in the default release policy, so that it will have the value member@ox.ac.uk for members and no value otherwise. More fine grained values e.g. student@ox.ac.uk are not realsed by default.

Registered ITSS may request the release of additional attributes / full values for a filtered attribute.
