#Custom Attribute Creation

We need to create couple of custom attributes and one custom nameID. List of custom attributes and nameID is stated below. Here is how we can create custom attributes.

• uidwebex
• emailwebex
• firstnamewebex
• lastnamewebex
• webexnameid

In secord part ( oxTrust operation ) of creating custom attribute, we need to follow couple of points for these special attributes. Here is how each attribute should be created:

• uidwebex:

  • Name: uidwebex
  • SAML1 URI: uid
  • SAML2 URI: uid
  • DisplayName: uidwebex
  • Type: Text
  • Rest are default values.

• emailwebex:

  • Name: emailwebex
  • SAML1 URI: email
  • SAML2 URI: email
  • DisplayName: wxemail
  • Rest are default values

• wxfirstname

  • Name: firstnamewebex
  • SAML1 URI: firstname
  • SAML2 URI: firstname
  • DisplayName: wxfirstname
  • Type: Text
  • Rest are default values.

• wxlastname:

  • Name: lastnamewebex
  • SAML1 URI: lastname
  • SAML2 URI: lastname
  • DisplayName: wxlastname
  • Rest are default values.

• webexnameid

  • Name: webexnameid
  • SAML1 URI: urn:gluu:dir:attribute-def:webexnameid
  • SAML2 URI: urn:oid:webexnameid
  • DisplayName: webexnameid
  • Type: Text
  • Rest are default values.

#WebEx Attribute generation

We need to modify attributeDefinition for these attributes. Configuration is applied in attribute-resolver.xml.vm file which is located in /opt/gluu/jetty/identity/conf/shibboleth3/idp/

#Attribute Definition

• Attribute 'uidwebex':
  • Add 'uidwebex' in 'if statement':

#if( ! ($attribute.name.equals('transientId') or $attribute.name.equals('persistentId') $attribute.name.equals('uidwebex') ) )

- Declaration of 'uidwebex':

        <resolver:AttributeDefinition xsi:type="ad:Simple" id="uidwebex" sourceAttributeID="uidwebex">
                <resolver:Dependency ref="siteLDAP" />
                <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML2String" nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:unspecified" name="uid" />
        </resolver:AttributeDefinition>

• Attribute 'emailwebex':
  • Append 'emailwebex' in 'if statement':

#if( ! ($attribute.name.equals('transientId') or $attribute.name.equals('persistentId') or $attribute.name.equals('uidwebex') or $attribute.name.equals('emailwebex') ) )

- Declaration of 'emailwebex':

<resolver:AttributeDefinition xsi:type="ad:Simple" id="emailwebex" sourceAttributeID="emailwebex">
        <resolver:Dependency ref="siteLDAP" />
        <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML2String" nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:unspecified" name="email" />
    </resolver:AttributeDefinition>

• Attribute 'firstnamewebex':
  • Append 'firstnamewebex' in 'if statement' just like above attributes
  • Declaration of 'firstnamewebex':

<resolver:AttributeDefinition xsi:type="ad:Simple" id="firstnamewebex" sourceAttributeID="firstnamewebex">
        <resolver:Dependency ref="siteLDAP" />
        <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML2String" nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:unspecified" name="firstname" />
    </resolver:AttributeDefinition>

• Attribute 'lastnamewebex':
  • Append 'lastnamewebex' in 'if statement'
  • Declaration of 'lastnamewebex':

<resolver:AttributeDefinition xsi:type="ad:Simple" id="lastnamewebex" sourceAttributeID="lastnamewebex">
        <resolver:Dependency ref="siteLDAP" />
        <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML2String" nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:unspecified" name="lastname" />
</resolver:AttributeDefinition>

• NameID 'webexnameid':
  • Append 'webexnameid' in 'if statement'
  • Declaration of 'webexnameid':

<resolver:AttributeDefinition id="webexnameid"
        xsi:type="Simple"
        xmlns="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:resolver:ad"
        sourceAttributeID="mail">
    <resolver:Dependency ref="siteLDAP" />
    <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="SAML2StringNameID"
             xmlns="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:attribute:encoder"
             nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress"/>
 </resolver:AttributeDefinition>
 

• SAML2 NameID Generation:
  • File: saml-nameid.xml
  • Location: /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf
  • Add bean inside SAML2 NameID util:list

<bean parent="shibboleth.SAML2AttributeSourcedGenerator"
    p:format="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress"
    p:attributeSourceIds="#{ {'webexnameid'} }" />

• Restart the 'idp' and 'identity' services

      • signResponse: conditional
      • signAssertions: never
      • signRequests: conditional
      • encryptAssertions: never
