Deakin University federated SSO (AAF Rapid IdP) is one of 8 APIs that [Deakin University](https://apis.io/providers/deakin/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, SAML, AAF, and Managed Service. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The federation-registered deployment of the same entityID. In the AAF production aggregate, https://signon.deakin.edu.au/idp/shibboleth carries SingleSignOnService locations on aaf.deakin.edu.au, which CNAMEs to ec9a7f24c761e9b79a6c8c40560c805e.idp-cname.aaf.edu.au and resolves to Amazon address space (AT-88-Z) on an Amazon-issued certificate — AAF's fully managed Rapid IdP. Registered 2025-11-09, carrying REFEDS Research & Scholarship, REFEDS Code of Conduct v2, the GEANT Data Protection Code of Conduct and REFEDS Sirtfi assurance. The identity data and attribute release are Deakin's; the infrastructure and the metadata-serving endpoint are AAF's, so this is recorded as a tenant relationship and not as a second Deakin contract.
