The OP's problem was due to a mismatch/typo in the entityID. Nothing else.

Well, the answer is going to be the same:  if the metadata lookup says
that it's not there, then well, it's not there.  Either you have a
similar issue with a wrong/typo-ed entityID, or the metadata that
you're looking at isn't actually loaded into memory.  Or something
similar to that.

There's no mystery: the entityID
'https://archives.heal-link.gr/shibboleth' doesn't exist in the live
metadata with that role and protocol.  Check spelling, lower vs upper
case issues, trailing slash, etc.  The entityID has to be exactly that
string.
