Monash University Identity Provider (AAF Rapid IdP tenant) is one of 8 APIs that [Monash University](https://apis.io/providers/monash/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, SAML, Shibboleth, and Single Sign-On.

Monash's federated login, published as a signed SAML 2.0 EntityDescriptor at https://idp.monash.edu.au/idp/shibboleth (HTTP 200, application/xml). Declares HTTP-POST and HTTP-Redirect SSO bindings, separate signing and encryption key descriptors, a shibmd:Scope of monash.edu.au, and release of auEduPersonSharedToken, email and displayName; the entity is registered in the Australian Access Federation production aggregate and flows into eduGAIN. It is the most complete machine-readable contract in this profile and it is a tenant surface, not a Monash-engineered one — the metadata is captured here, but the contract scores against AAF.
