My tech team is asking for what the Identifier (Entity ID) and Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL). How do we find this information out? Many thanks!

  • Hi Nick,

    Thank you for connecting with us!

    In the context of Authentication and SAML administration, an Entity ID is a unique identifier assigned to an Identity Provider (IdP) while the Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) is a web service endpoint that is used in the SAML authentication and authorization protocol

    The metadata information can be found within BrightSpace when you go to Admin Gear > SAML administration > Add new identity provider > click on 'See detailed metadata'

    You can find more information about this on our SAML administration page here:https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/4856-manage-an-identity-provider

    I hope you find this resource helpful

    Thank you
