  • 1.  Partnership Federation - add language querystring

    Posted Jul 04, 2017 02:33 PM

    In our scenario we have CA Single Sign-On as the SP and a third-party provider as an IDP. We want to be able to specify the display language of the IDP login page in order to bypass the browser language. We have setup a Partnership Federation for this.

     

    The provider can handle the language specified in the querystring like this :  https://idp.sampCSP.com/cbs/...?SAMLRequest=<AuthnRequest>&lang=fr

     

    If I add the language in the querystring of the saml2authnrequest (/affwebservices/public/saml2authnrequest?ProviderID=<ProviderID>&lang=fr), the "lang" querystring is lost when redirecting to the URL of the IDP ( /federation/profile/SAML2/Redirect/SSO?SAMLRequest=<AuthnRequest>).

     

    Is it possible to add a querystring to the redirection ? And if do, how do I acheive this ?

     

    Regards,

     

    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    This functionality isn't implemented in CA Single Sign-On federation so far.
    We invite you to submit an idea to get this implemented.
    I hope that helps,
    Best Regards,
    Patrick

    Hi Steve,

     

    We ignore unknown query parameters before redirecting and this might need a code change to support.

    As patrick mentioned,  Please submit an idea to get this implemented.

     

    Thanks,
