@ramonmalcolm10 Please provide more details as the description provided is insufficient. What exactly do you want to see in the sample?

Similar to how a example was done for authenticating with social provider. I would love for an example be shown on how to achieve same with SAML. Not sure if this response offer enough clarification but you can always let me know.

@jgrandja We implemented support for federating to a SAML asserting party or OIDC provider based upon the tenant's domain settings. I'd be happy to share code samples if it would be helpful.

[jgrandja]

@ccobham Sure, that would be great if you can share some code samples.

[ccobham]

@jgrandja Do you have a preference as to how/where the code samples should be shared? After a bit of poking around I see you have an OIDC federation example at https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-authorization-server/tree/main/samples/demo-authorizationserver/src/main/java/sample/federation. I can submit a pull request with the SAML configuration defined in this package as well.

I can submit a pull request with the SAML configuration defined in this package as well.

I'm not sure yet if we would merge the code into the demo sample. For now, can you provide a reference to a branch that includes the SAML integration. This way others can see the code as well. We can determine afterwards if we would merge the code or maybe just provide the code sample in the How-To guide.

@ccobham Can you share your code samples？
