Criipto
  1. Guides & Tools
  2. Work with metadata

For each domain you have in Criipto Verify, you can fetch token-issuer related metadata. These are used to configure your client to trust only tokens issued by your tenant, and they also contain information that many client-side libraries can use to run most of the login process automatically.

The remainder of this article uses yourdomain.criipto.id as a placeholder for your actual domain. Replace as needed before setting up your client(s) with metadata endpoints.

WS-Federation

  1. (shorthand) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/metadata/wsfed

  2. (ADFS-style) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml

    - note that both of the above return exactly the same data.

Login-method specific metadata

In some scenarios, you may have to use login-method specific metadata endpoints. This can be needed if the client does not allow you to specify acr_values (OIDC) or wauth (WS-Federation) dynamically.

For those cases, you can leverage our login-method specific metadata endpoints. Each of these contain an embedded and base64-encoded variant of the 'raw' value normally supplied in the acr_values / wauth query parameter.

WS-Federation

Syntax options:

  1. (shorthand) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/metadata/wsfed/BASE64(wauth)
  2. (ADFS-style) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/BASE64(wauth)/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml
  • note the different placements of the BASE64(wauth) path segment in the 2 cases.

Example - Swedish BankID on another-device

Here, the wauth value is urn:grn:authn:se:bankid:another-device. This translates to dXJuOmdybjphdXRobjpzZTpiYW5raWQ6YW5vdGhlci1kZXZpY2U= in base64 (UTF-8 charset), and the metadata endpoints are

  1. (shorthand) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/metadata/wsfed/dXJuOmdybjphdXRobjpzZTpiYW5raWQ6YW5vdGhlci1kZXZpY2U=
  2. (ADFS-style) https://yourdomain.criipto.id/dXJuOmdybjphdXRobjpzZTpiYW5raWQ6YW5vdGhlci1kZXZpY2U=/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml

OpenID Connect Discovery

Syntax:

  1. https://yourdomain.criipto.id/BASE64(acr_values)/.well-known/openid-configuration

Example - Norwegian BankID

Here, the acr_values is urn:grn:authn:no:bankid. This translates to dXJuOmdybjphdXRobjpubzpiYW5raWQ= in base64 (UTF-8 charset), and the metadata endpoint is
