SAML support and the API

The documents that I have been able to find regarding the SAML support released in Summer 08 does not indicate how it works with API logins. The guide that I am using indicates logging in with an HTTP Post to the Recipient URL. Is this only for user logins through the UI? What is the method for API logins. Is the SAML SOAP supported and is there any documentation or examples showing an API login?

Thanks,

Eric

Where can I find the documents you are referring to regarding SAML support in the Summer 2008 release?

The Summer '08 native support for SAML is for the web UI only, its not supported in the API.

Where can I find the SAML documentation for the Web UI?

Login to the app, click help, search for SAML.

Simon,

Not sure if this can be answered here but will Winter 09 support SAML through the APIs. I understand that the current support is SAML Idp-initiated Browser-Post profile  but the Winter 09 relase notes indicate SAML 2.0 support. Does this include SAML SOAP Binding?

Thanks,

Eric

No, there are no current plans to support SAML in the API.

I have added a request for SAML API support to the IdeaExchange since I have clients who have expressed interest. Thanks for the update.
