We are a PingFederate shop, but have recently setup a subsidiary using ADFS for federation (2012 R2 ADFS 3.0). My experience with that is limited. Office 365 connection is fine, but setting up a relying party trust with a SaaS provider and ran into an issue. The SAML response ADFS generates omits the "saml" namespace prefix on the XML elements, which I believe is allowed by the SAML 2.0 spec, but the vendor is coded to require them:
*******our ADFS generated response************ <Issuer xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion">http://sts.acme.com/adfs/services/trust</Issuer> <samlp:Status> <samlp:StatusCode Value="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:status:Success" /> </samlp:Status> <Assertion ID="_b4d9xxxxb-4ef2-494e-xxxx-d21c34018935" IssueInstant="2016-11-15T19:47:36.217Z" Version="2.0" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion"> *******Vendor expected response************ <Saml:Issuer xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion">http://sts.acme.com/adfs/services/trust</Issuer> <samlp:Status> <samlp:StatusCode Value="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:status:Success" /> </samlp:Status> <Saml:Assertion ID="_b4d9xxxxb-4ef2-494e-xxxx-d21c34018935" IssueInstant="2016-11-15T19:47:36.217Z" Version="2.0" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:assertion"> So far my Google search has turned up a few things related to this, but nothing that talks about ADFS. Has anyone run into this before? Is there a way to get ADFS to add the namespace prefix to the elements?
