This document describes the SAML attributes and OIDC claims that are available to relying parties connected to the GEANT SP ProxyAAI Service. Attribute Attribute - claims marked as Mandatory will always be available to a relying party. Attribute - claims marked as Optional will be made available under certain circumstances. For example, some attributes - claims can be available only if the respective attributes - claims are released by the home Identity Provider of the user. Attributes - claims and values marked as Experimental might change or removed in the future, so relying parties should not rely on them, but use them only for experimental purposes.

| Notes | The User Identifier and Username “test@aai.geant.org” are test accounts reserved for testing and monitoring the proper functioning. The Relying parties should not authorise it to access any valuable resources. |
Username
| Name | Username |
|---|---|
| Description | The username is a human-readable, revocable identifier (i.e. the user can change it). It is intended to be used when a unique identifier needs to be displayed in the user interface (e.g. wikis or Unix accounts). It has the syntax of eduPersonPrincipalName, which consists of “user” part and a fixed scope “aai.geant.org”, separated by at sign. The user part (syntax derived from Linux accounts) begins with a lowercase letter or an underscore, followed by lower case letters, digits, underscores, or dashes. In regular expression: [a-z_][a-z0-9_-]*? The usernames beginning with an underscore are dedicated to service IDs. |
