<p class="MsoNormal">I’m trying to switch my SP to a new IdP. Currently, I’m integrated with a customer’s ADFS server using Shibboleth, and SAML 2.0 POST binding. I was thinking it would be dead simple to switch over to using ACS, so that I could federate
with the existing IdP via the ACS console, and add other IdPs as well. However, when look at the metadata XML provided by my ACS namespace, it doesn’t have an IDPSSODescriptor element so Shibboleth complains. Does that mean that ACS doesn’t support the SAML
2.0 protocol? I found an article <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg185948.aspx">
here</a> from 2013 saying that it does support it but it’s in “feature preview”. Any ideas? Can I just modify the XML to include the IDPSSODescriptor element? I’ve also added an SO question
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21738264/why-doesnt-azure-acs-metadata-contain-spssodescriptor-or-idpssodescriptor-eleme">
