Attributes (Fedvis)

The Fedvis federation utilizes the same attribute profile as the Sambi federation. This ensures seamless interoperability and data consistency, enabling efficient and reliable data exchange.

In Fedvis, subject identification and authorization information can be transmitted as attributes within the SAML Assertion. These attributes are defined in the Attribute Profile. It is strongly recommended to adhere to this profile when sending attributes to ensure seamless interoperability within the federation.

The current version of the attribute profile can be found below.

Attribute release should always be done in accordance to current legislation such as PDL and GDPR. Always customize the attribute releases per SAML SP in your IdP solution. Never release more than required, and do not release everything to everyone.
