Jfyi, you can see the mapped SAML attributes in the Session handler
(by default at /Shibboleth.sso/Session) or get the complete SAML
assertion from the SP's log file (e.g. shibd.logger root categorty on
DEBUG).

You could also grab the assertion from the HTTP user agent during
transmission (and base64-decode it) but unless the attributes are
unencrypted (uncommon with SAML2.0, but can be configured in the IdP,
at least in the Shib IdP trivially allows you to do that).

Unless your "task" is a university assignment and you're require to do
that in codede, of course.
