Generate shibboleth IdP metadata

Question

I was thrown on a project where I need to implement web sso. I'm new to SAML. I've set up shibboleth idp. How do I generate IdP metadata in order to give it to service providers.

Answer 1

It's located in

{shibboleth installation folder}/metadata/idp-metadata.xml 

Answer 2

The default location for shibboleth-idp metadata is in either of the following locations :

Shibboleth-idp-installation/metadata/idp-metadata.xml

or

idp-url/shibboleth
