Deirdre,

 
You may find https://samltest.id/ to be a useful resource.  It's basically a fully configured SP that will let you see its logs so you can know exactly what's going on, end to end.

 
Best wishes,

Nate.

Eventually, we will want to set up as a federation SP, but this is just dev at this point, so we are only configuring our org IDP. 
I did find the documentation on creating the metadata schema/rules, so thanks for that direction.

It's an XML file with a very defined schema and set of rules for what's in it, but that's probably obvious so the intent of the question is not 100% clear.

Speaking in general terms, a federated SP (that is, one dealing with many IdPs of different organizations) really needs to be in a federation, and federations provide metadata management systems generally, though not always.

An enterprise SP is dealing with a single IdP and the IdP operator should be providing processes to follow. For myself, I don't ask SPs to give me metadata as a rule, I just expect them to inform me of the keys and hosts through a registration process, then I assign them entityID(s) to use, and I have processes to follow when changes are needed.
