Macquarie University Identity Provider (Shibboleth / SAML 2.0) is one of 8 APIs that [Macquarie University](https://apis.io/providers/macquarie/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, SAML, Shibboleth, Single Sign-On, and AAF. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Macquarie operates its own Shibboleth identity provider at idp.mq.edu.au, publishing SAML 2.0 metadata anonymously at /idp/shibboleth and registered in the Australian Access Federation as entityID urn:mace:federation.org.au:testfed:mq.edu.au since 2018-08-24. The entity asserts REFEDS Research & Scholarship, the REFEDS anonymous / pseudonymous / personalized categories, the GEANT Data Protection Code of Conduct v1, REFEDS Code of Conduct v2, and SIRTFI assurance. Three Macquarie-operated SAML service providers are registered alongside it — iLearn production and staging, and the university LimeSurvey. Institution-operated by definition; the machine readable artifact is XML metadata rather than an HTTP API, so no OpenAPI is claimed.
