Charles University Shibboleth Identity Provider is one of 17 APIs that [Charles University](https://apis.io/providers/charles/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, Shibboleth, SAML, eduGAIN, and Authentication. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Charles University operates its own Shibboleth SAML 2.0 identity provider. Metadata is served at idp.cuni.cz as application/xml with entityID https://cas.cuni.cz/idp/shibboleth, shibmd:Scope cuni.cz, and mdui:DisplayName "Charles University" / "Univerzita Karlova". The IdP is registered in eduID.cz, the Czech national identity federation operated by CESNET, and reachable through eduGAIN. A federation is shared by definition; the IdP behind it is the institution's own and is one of its strongest machine-readable, institution-operated surfaces.
