load_sp_metadata Method

Loads the metadata required for information exchange with the service provider.

Syntax

def load_sp_metadata(file_name: str) -> int: ...

Remarks

The Service provider (SP) may have a lot of different options and requirements for interactions with the Identity provider (IdP). Usually all these options together with X.509 certificates needed for data exchange are stored in XML metadata files. Use this method to load metadata from such file generated by the service provider.

FileName specifies the metadata file name.
