Interface SPAttributeMapper


public interface SPAttributeMapper

This interface SPAttributeMapper is used to map the SAML Attributes to the local user attributes. This mapper will be used by the Service Provider that will read the configured map for the corresponding SAML attributes and supply to the SAML framework. The locally mapped attributes returned by the implementation of this interface will be used by the SAML2 framework to expose through the single sign-on token to the application. Also, the implementation of this mapper may need to consider the deployment of the SAML v2 plugin base platform for example AccessManager or the FederationManager.
