As you can tell from the above, the CCC Central Metadata feed is available at: http://saml.ccctcportal.org/metadata/ccc-metadata.xml. Note that part of the above configuration is verifying the "signature" on that metadata file and to do that you must create a new file in your IdP's credentials/ directory named 'credentials/ccctc-md-cert.pem' with the following content:

| Simple Name and the SAMLv2 name when sent in the SAMLv2 response | Short description | Sample value(s) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
eduPersonPrincipalName (EPPN) urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.6 | The primary federated identifier of a given user from a college/district IdP. |
| EPPN has the syntax of an email address, but it should be considered a "globally unique federated identifier" rather than an email address. It is generally the most important attribute to be shared with federated services. Note that the value of EPPN does not have to match what the user fills in as their username when they login, and the user does not need to know what their EPPN is, as it is shared between the IdP and the service. It should be unique, rarely change, and not be reassigned to another person. |
eduPersonAffiliation urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.1 | Role within the institution |
| All of the roles a given person has within the college. This is the only attribute listed here that is intended to have multiple values. All the rest are expected to have a single value. |
eduPersonPrimaryAffiliation urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.5 | Primary role at the institution |
| Must be one of the values specified in eduPersonAffilliation. If the eduPersonAffiliation attribute has many values, the primary affiliation should reflect the role to be associated with services that differentiate based on this value (such as the CCC Portal). |
uid urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.1 | Username | jsmith | This is usually the value that the user fills in as their username when they login. If you are using AD, the usual attribute you want to use to populate uid is the sAMAccountName attribute. |
givenName ..... urn:oid:2.5.4.42 | First Name | Jane | |
sn (surname) .... urn:oid:2.5.4.4 | Last Name | Smith | |
displayName urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113730.3.1.241 | Full name to display | Jane Smith | |
mail (email) urn:oid:0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3 | Email Address | jane.smith@college.edu | |
cccId
| Unique id for a student within the CCC system | The CCCID is a critical attribute for students. If not specified, but required for a portal or service action, the CCCID will be looked up via the EPPN. If no match is found, the action cannot be performed until the user creates a CCCID via the OpenCCC portlet. | |
cccMisCode | The MIS code assigned to a college by the CCC. If a IdP is for the district, and represents multiple colleges, each with their own MIS code, the IdP could send the district MIS code as a default. | 123 | Ideally, the college/district IdP could send the exact right MIS code for the given person authenticating. If the IdP is 1-to-1 with a specific college, that is easy. But if your IdP is at the district-level and covers multiple colleges, then you'd need to add an attribute to the directory to hold a given user's MIS code. See this document if you don't know your MIS code(s): CCC MIS codeslocality .... |
Additional Recommended Attributes
Below are additional attributes that can be sent by the college. These attributes are not required, but are highly recommended and can be useful for pre-populating values required to create a central CCCID account.
