Shibboleth/SAML for SSO at UC Davis

What is Shibboleth and SAML?

Why use Shibboleth/SAML?

  • If you might (eventually) wish to share your application to non-UC Davis clients, e.g. another UC campus.
  • When attributes such as name, email address etc. need to be made available to your application when a client logs in, e.g. for personalization.
  • When attribute values might be required to make access/authorization decisions, e.g. client affiliation.
