Hi,
I am new to shibboleth and trying to perform IDP initiated SSO

My SP metadata file contain these attribute :
<NameIDFormat>urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress</NameIDFormat>
<NameIDFormat>urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified</NameIDFormat>

=>does it means that my SP is accepting email address as nameIDFormat?

and in my IDP attribute-resolver.xml :

 <!--Name Identifier related attributes -->
    <resolver:AttributeDefinition id="transientId"
xsi:type="ad:TransientId">
        <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML1StringNameIdentifier"
nameFormat="urn:mace:shibboleth:1.0:nameIdentifier"/>
        <resolver:AttributeEncoder xsi:type="enc:SAML2StringNameID"
nameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:transient"/>
    </resolver:AttributeDefinition>

so when request is made in saml tracer I can see that nameID is set to some
encoded string
Issuer                      = https://<xyz>/idp/shibboleth
Subject                     = _8a6f5377a471fc24182dfa02ea194b43
NameID                      = _8a6f5377a471fc24182dfa02ea194b43

=>IS this due to Transient?

=>So how can I make my nameID field to be set as my principal name like
xyz at domain.com because my SP is using nameID as username during access I
guess?
