Creating and sending an AuthnRequest
Today we will introduce an example on how to create an AuthnRequest and send it to your IdentityProvider using our Ultimate SAML component:
AuthnRequest request = new AuthnRequest();
request.IsPassive = false;
request.ProtocolBinding = SamlBindingUri.HttpPost;
request.AssertionConsumerServiceURL = "your url";
request.Issuer = new Issuer();
request.Issuer.NameIdentifier = "your name identifier";
request.NameIdPolicy = new NameIdPolicy();
request.NameIdPolicy.SpNameQualifier = "moodle.sp.myname";
request.NameIdPolicy.AllowCreate = true;
request.NameIdPolicy.Format = SamlNameIdentifierFormat.Persistent;
request.RequestedAuthnContext = new RequestedAuthnContext();
request.RequestedAuthnContext.Comparison = SamlAuthenticationContextComparison.Exact;
request.RequestedAuthnContext.AuthenticationContexts.Add(new AuthnContextClassRef(SamlAuthenticationContext.PasswordProtectedTransport));
request.SendHttpPost(Response, "http://mybaseurl", "my_relay_state");
