Customize a User Consent Form (Optional)

The product ships with a consent to federate form named ca_defaultconsentform.html. The Identity Provider sends the custom form to the user to get permission to send an assertion for that user. The default consent form is in the following locations:

Windows:  %FEDROOT%\customization

UNIX:  $FEDROOT/customization

FEDROOT is the system environment variable.

You can write a custom form instead of using the default consent form.

Follow these steps:

1. Create the custom HTML form. Modify the form and replace values for the following settings:

   $$userconsent_spid$$

   Represents the SP ID configured in the partnership

   $$userconsent_idpid$$

   Represents the IDP ID configured in the partnership.

2. Place the form in the customization directory.
3. Specify the location of the form User Consent Post Form in the Administrative UI.
