SAML EntityIDs for the SSO GW
There are two instances of the CCC SSO GW that you will want to configure attribute release to, a Pilot and a Production instance. The entityID for each is:
SSO GW Pilot: https://sso.pilot.cccmypath.org/simplesaml/module.php/saml/sp/metadata.php
SSO GW Production: https://sso.cccmypath.org/simplesaml/module.php/saml/sp/metadata.php
Metadata for the SSO GW
You can obtain the needed metadata for the above two SSO GW instances by downloading the CCC Central Metadata feed and looking for the above two entityIDs within it. The other option is to ask the SSO GW administrators for a URL specific to your college/district that would give you metadata for just each of the above two entityIDs. The CCC Central Metadata feed is available at:
http://saml.cccmypath.org/metadata/ccc-metadata.xml
Configure the Attributes
Make sure you understand and configure all of the following attributes for release to the above entityIDs:
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. |
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. | |
Optional Attributes | |||
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). |
