Q&A: I need to create a SAML service provider with multi-values for LDAPattributes - what's the correct syntax?

Question

I need to create a SAML service provider with multiple values for ldap attributes that are transmissioned to the service provider. Doing this via the UMC works, but I need a CLI version with udm - what’s the correct syntax?

Answer

The syntax for multi-value attributes can be a bit tricky. Rule of thumb: Always use --append instead of --set and be careful with whitespaces. An example:

udm saml/serviceprovider create \
 --position="cn=saml-serviceprovider,cn=univention,$(ucr get ldap/base)" \
 --set Identifier=Your-SAML-SP-Identifier \
 --set AssertionConsumerService="https://fqdn-of-your-sp.example.org/saml2/sp/acs" \
 --set singleLogoutService="https://fqdn-of-your-sp.example.org/saml2/sp/slo" \
 --set NameIDFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:transient" \
 --set simplesamlNameIDAttribute=uid \
 --set signLogouts=TRUE \
 --set isActivated=TRUE \
 --set simplesamlAttributes=TRUE \
 --set attributesNameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:basic" \
 --append LDAPattributes="givenName Givenname" \
 --append LDAPattributes="sn Surname" \
 --append LDAPattributes="mail Emailaddress" \
 --append LDAPattributes='uid "Unique User Identifier"' \
 --append LDAPattributes="displayName Name"

Please note: The actual values depend on your service provider, especially the URLs and the name formats. This is just an example to illustrate how to use udm with LDAPattributes.
