Uppsala University SAML 2.0 Identity Provider Metadata

Uppsala University runs its own Shibboleth Identity Provider and publishes its SAML 2.0 federation metadata as a machine-readable EntityDescriptor. It is registered in SWAMID, the Swedish identity federation for research and higher education, and therefore reachable through eduGAIN. The document advertises SingleSignOnService over HTTP-POST and HTTP-Redirect, SingleLogoutService over Redirect, POST and SOAP, and ArtifactResolution over SOAP. This is one of the few genuinely institution-operated, machine-readable, standards-conformant surfaces most universities run, and it is almost never catalogued.
