The SAML class is used to obtain security tokens and assertions.

Syntax

ipworksauth.Saml

Remarks

The SAML class provides an easy-to-use interface to obtain security tokens and assertions. The class can also be used to parse assertions and inspect the claims within.

The component has built in support for working with Microsoft SharePoint Online and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online. This support means only a minimum of information needs to be supplied to the component.

Microsoft SharePoint Online and Dynamics CRM Online

To begin working with SharePoint Online or Dynamics CRM Online first set the AuthMode to the appropriate value. The class will automatically populate several properties to known values. Set the User, Password, ApplicationURN properties and call GetSecurityToken. For instance:

component.AuthMode = SAMLAuthModes.amDynamicsCRM; //dynamic crm component.User = "user@mycrm.onmicrosoft.com"; component.Password = "password"; component.ApplicationURN = "urn:crmapac:dynamics.com"; component.GetSecurityToken(); After calling GetSecurityToken the SecurityTokenXML property will be populated.

ADFS and Others

When working with ADFS or another Security Token Service (STS) the GetAssertion method may be used to obtain an assertion. To begin set AuthMode to either amADFS or amCustom. Then set LocalSTS, User, Password, and ApplicationURN. For instance:

component.AuthMode = SAMLAuthModes.amADFS; component.User = "administrator"; component.Password = "admin"; component.LocalSTS = "https://adfs.contoso.com"; component.ApplicationURN = "https://fsweb.contoso.com/ClaimsAwareWebAppWithManagedSTS/"; component.GetAssertion(); If the assertion is signed the class will use the certificate specified in SignerCert to verify the signature. If SignerCert is not set the class will attempt to parse the certificate present in the assertion to perform verification.

After the assertion is parsed and the signature is verified (if present) the following properties will be populated:

• AssertionId
• AssertionIssueInstant
• AssertionIssuer
• AssertionNotBefore
• AssertionNotOnOrAfter
• AssertionSubject
• AssertionVersion
• AssertionXML
• Claims

Parsing an Assertion

The class may also be used to parse an existing assertion without contacting a STS. To parse an existing assertion call ParseAssertion with the assertion XML. If the assertion is signed the class will use the certificate specified in SignerCert to verify the signature. If SignerCert is not set the class will attempt to parse the certificate present in the assertion to perform verification.

After the assertion is parsed and the signature is verified (if present) the following properties will be populated:

• AssertionId
• AssertionIssueInstant
• AssertionIssuer
• AssertionNotBefore
• AssertionNotOnOrAfter
• AssertionSubject
• AssertionVersion
• AssertionXML
• Claims
