View Source Samly.Subject (samly v1.4.0)
The subject in a SAML 2.0 Assertion.
This is part of the Samly.Assertion
struct. The name
field in this struct should not
be used in any UI directly. It might be a temporary randomly generated
ID from IdP. Samly
internally uses this to deal with IdP initiated logout requests.
If an authentication request was sent from Samly
(SP initiated), the SAML response
is expected to include the original request ID. This ID is made available in
Samly.Subject.in_response_to
.
If the authentication request originated from the IDP (IDP initiated), there won't
be a Samly
request ID associated with it. The Samly.Subject.in_response_to
will be an empty string in that case.
