Change federation

To change federation of persistently linked accounts:

  1. Retrieve the name identifier value, used to manage the federation in the second step.

    1. You can retrieve the name identifier value on the IDP side by checking the value of the sun-fm-saml2-nameid-infokey property.

      For example, if the user’s entry in the directory shows:

        sun-fm-saml2-nameid-infokey:
          https://<tenant-env-fqdn>/am|
          https://<tenant-env-sp-fqdn>/am|
          XyfFEsr6Vixbnt0BSqIglLFMGjR2

      Then, the name identifier on the IDP side is XyfFEsr6Vixbnt0BSqIglLFMGjR2.

    2. You can retrieve the name identifier value on the SP side by checking the value of sun-fm-saml2-nameid-info.

      For example, if the user’s entry in the directory shows:

        sun-fm-saml2-nameid-info:
          https://<tenant-env-sp-fqdn>/am|
          https://<tenant-env-fqdn>/am|
          ATo9TSA9Y2Ln7DDrAdO3HFfH5jKD|
          https://<tenant-env-fqdn>/am|
          urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:persistent|
          9B1OPy3m0ejv3fZYhlqxXmiGD24c|
          https://<tenant-env-sp-fqdn>/am|
          SPRole|false

      Then, the name identifier on the SP side is 9B1OPy3m0ejv3fZYhlqxXmiGD24c.

  2. Use the identifier to initiate a change request, as in the following examples:

    1. To initiate a change request from the service provider, use a URL similar to the following example:

      https://<tenant-env-sp-fqdn>/am/saml2/jsp/spMNIRequestInit.jsp
      ?idpEntityID=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.idp.com%3A8443%2Fopenam
      &metaAlias=/sp
      &requestType=NewID
      &IDPProvidedID=XyfFEsr6Vixbnt0BSqIglLFMGjR2

      You can substitute am/SPMniInit for am/saml2/jsp/spMNIRequestInit.jsp.

    2. To initiate a change request from the identity provider, use a URL similar to the following example:

      https://<tenant-env-fqdn>/am/saml2/jsp/idpMNIRequestInit.jsp
      ?spEntityID=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sp.com%3A8443%2Fopenam
      &metaAlias=/idp
      &requestType=NewID
      &SPProvidedID=9B1OPy3m0ejv3fZYhlqxXmiGD24c

      You can substitute am/IDPMniInit for am/saml2/jsp/idpMNIRequestInit.jsp
