How to Renew Expired Metadata for SSO/SAML


I am trying to host a metadata file and act as an IdP.

To generate the metadata I used the following online tool https://www.samltool.com/idp_metadata.php

After filling out the form and building it, the validUntil attribute is set to be the current timestamp.

When trying to test this metadata with https://samltest.id/upload.php it says expired.

When I increment the year and try again the metadata date doesn't seem to change.

How can create an IdP metadata file that is valid?


Solution

  • You can manually change the validUntil value according with your requirement. There won't be any issue during validation on the aforementioned site.

    To verify, I just quickly ran through changing the field value and my input meta-data passed the validation.

    original and updated results.
