How to control fields in SAMLRequest created by APM

Hi !

 

I implement a SAML2.0 Service Provider using HTTP Post binding with APM.

 

For an integration with an IDP, I need to control fields in The SAMLRequest created by APM.

 

The IDP supports multiple authentication mechanisms, and i need to control which one to use. The standard mechanism to do this is to set a value in a AuthContext (I suspect they relly mean a RequestedAuthnContext) element in the SAMLResponse.

 

Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to control the content of the SAMLResponse with APM. Is there a way? If not, how could I go about signaling to the IDP what authentication I want the User to use?

    I currently use 12.0.0. I see the same options as in your screenshot, but I'm not able to control the fields my IDP integration partner wants me to set. Here is an example of the how they want me to add KEY/VALUE pairs to the

    :

        
    https://example.com
    
    
        VALUE

    I cannot find any way to configure use of the

    element they want me to add. I would need to control the content of the element too, including populating 'VALUE' independently for each user session.
