NAME

Net::SAML2 - SAML2 bindings and protocol implementation

VERSION

version 0.78

SYNOPSIS

  See TUTORIAL.md for implementation documentation and
  t/12-full-client.t for a pseudo implementation following the tutorial

  # generate a redirect off to the IdP:

        my $idp = Net::SAML2::IdP->new($IDP);

  # handle the POST back from the IdP, via the browser:

                $saml_response

        }

DESCRIPTION

Support for the Web Browser SSO profile of SAML2.

Net::SAML2 correctly perform the SSO process against numerous SAML Identity Providers (IdPs). It has been tested against:

Version 0.54 and newer support EncryptedAssertions. No changes required to existing SP applications if EncryptedAssertions are not in use.

Auth0 (requires Net::SAML2 >=0.39)
Azure (Microsoft Office 365)
GSuite (Google)
Jump
Keycloak
MockSAML (https://mocksaml.com/)
Mircosoft ADFS
Okta
OneLogin
PingIdentity (requires Net::SAML2 >=0.54)
SAMLTEST.ID (requires Net::SAML2 >=0.63)
Shibboleth (requires Net::SAML2 >=0.63)
SimpleSAMLphp
DigiD (requires Net::SAML2 >= 0.63)
eHerkenning (requires Net::SAML2 >= 0.73)
eIDAS (requires Net::SAML2 >= 0.73)

MAJOR CAVEATS

SP-side protocol only
Requires XML metadata from the IdP
