create_saml_provider¶
Operation¶
create_saml_provider
async
¶
create_saml_provider(input: CreateSAMLProviderInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> CreateSAMLProviderOutput
Creates an IAM resource that describes an identity provider (IdP) that supports SAML 2.0.
The SAML provider resource that you create with this operation can be used as a principal in an IAM role's trust policy. Such a policy can enable federated users who sign in using the SAML IdP to assume the role. You can create an IAM role that supports Web-based single sign-on (SSO) to the Amazon Web Services Management Console or one that supports API access to Amazon Web Services.
When you create the SAML provider resource, you upload a SAML metadata document that you get from your IdP. That document includes the issuer's name, expiration information, and keys that can be used to validate the SAML authentication response (assertions) that the IdP sends. You must generate the metadata document using the identity management software that is used as your organization's IdP.
Note
This operation requires Signature Version 4.
For more information, see Enabling SAML 2.0 federated users to access the Amazon Web Services Management Console and About SAML 2.0-based federation in the IAM User Guide.
