String(resolutionContext.getAttributeRecipientID()) returns null

[Rhian Resnick]

Oh my, we may be missing something obvious. How does one obtain the entityId of the remote service provider in the context of the mfa flow selection?


The value is populated by something because when Shibboleth resolves the users attributes the value is present and the code executes as expected. Unfortunately when called by the MFA selection code it is null.

If you don't populate it, it isn't there. This is *you* running the resolver, not the IdP doing it in the more usual cases. If you want the field in the context populated, then your MFA script is the one to do it. You're fetching the value and getting null, but you should be setting the value if you want it set.
