Lund University Shibboleth Identity Provider (SWAMID) is one of 9 APIs that [Lund University](https://apis.io/providers/lund/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, SAML, Shibboleth, SWAMID, and eduGAIN. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Lund University's own SAML 2.0 / Shibboleth Identity Provider, serving machine-readable federation metadata at its entityID. The EntityDescriptor declares an IDPSSODescriptor, the Shibboleth scope lu.se, DiscoHints for lu.se and lth.se, and Swedish and English UIInfo. The entity is registered in SWAMID, Sweden's national identity federation, and is present in the SWAMID IdP aggregate that feeds eduGAIN. Institution-operated by definition and the one surface here that is not a library service. It authenticates people with a Lund affiliation; it is not a credential a third-party developer can get.
