Introduction

This is an example SAML SP service written using Flask and pysaml2.

Requirements

• Python 2.7+
• Virtualenv
• pip

Installation

```shell $ virtualenv venv $ source venv/bin/activate $ pip install -r requirements.txt ```

Running

```shell $ python app.py ```

Testing

The fastest way to test this example SAML SP is to use the saml.oktadev.com service.

Here is how:

1. Edit the "app.py" file and uncomment the line in the "test" line in "metadata_url_for" dictionary.

   ```shell $ $EDITOR app.py ```

   Change this line:

   ```shell

   ```

   To this:

   ```shell 'test': 'http://idp.oktadev.com/metadata', ```

2. Start the example SAML SP

   ```shell $ python app.py ```

3. Start ngrok on the port that the example SAML SP is running on. By default, the example SAML SP runs on TCP 5000.

   ```shell $ ngrok http 5000 ```

   You will need to install ngrok if you haven't already.

   Here is what it should look like:

4. Run saml.oktadev.com to test this example SAML SP

   • Load saml.oktadev.com in your browser and fill out as follows: Issuer: "urn:example:idp" SAML ACS URL: "http://REPLACE_ME.ngrok.com/saml/sso/test" SAML Audience URI: "http://REPLACE_ME.ngrok.com/saml/sso/test" Be sure to replace the string "REPLACE_ME" with the sub-domain that ngrok selected for you!
   • Click the "Submit" button.
   • Your output should look like the image below:
