# Shibboleth Identity Provider (SAML 2.0)

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/zhejiang/shibboleth/

Shibboleth Identity Provider (SAML 2.0) is one of 3 APIs that [Zhejiang University](https://apis.io/providers/zhejiang/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Identity Federation, SAML, Shibboleth, Single Sign-On, and eduGAIN. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes authentication docs.

Zhejiang University operates a Shibboleth SAML 2.0 Identity Provider, entityID https://idp.zju.edu.cn/idp/shibboleth, registered in CARSI (the CERNET Authentication and Resource Sharing Infrastructure) and interfederated through eduGAIN since 2020-01-31. It advertises SingleSignOn, SingleLogout, ArtifactResolution and AttributeQuery endpoints across SAML 1.0, SAML 1.1, SAML 2.0 and the Shibboleth-native binding. Caveat recorded honestly: the metadata served at the entityID is the unmodified Shibboleth installer artifact — validUntil 2020-01-29, expired for six years, with no Organization or ContactPerson block and the template placeholders still commented in. Federated consumers work from the CARSI/eduGAIN aggregate, not from this endpoint.
