Configure the SAML 1.x AMAssertionGenerator.properties File

To configure the AMAssertionGenerator.properties file:

1. Go to the following location: policy_server_home/config/properties
2. Open the AMAssertionGenerator.properties file in a text editor.
3. Modify the following parameters:
   • AssertionIssuerID

     Specifies the URL that identifies the site issuing the assertion.

     This URL must be the same value as the Issuer field that you complete for a SAML authentication scheme.

     Note: It is essential that this value be properly set so that SAML 1.x assertions are meaningful.

   • SecurityDomain

     Identifies the producer's domain, such as example.com

   • SourceID

     Specifies for the SAML 1.x artifact profile only, a unique ID in the artifact that identifies the producer. For more information, see the SAML specification at the OASIS web site.

The values you enter in this file should match the values for the equivalent settings at the consumer site, whether the consumer is a SAML Affiliate Agent or a 1.x consumer.

Note: If you make any changes to the AmAssertionGenerator.properties file, the changes will not be picked up by the Policy Server until it is restarted.
