How To: Send a Comma-Delimited List of AD Groups Within a SAML Assertion in Arculix

Version Affected: All

 

Overview

This article explains how to send a comma-delimited list of Active Directory group names (without the full distinguished name) within a SAML assertion in Arculix. This is useful when a SAML Service Provider requires a list of AD groups but only needs the group names, not the full DN for each group.

Send Group Names Without the Full DN

In the Asserted Attributes section of the SAML Application in Arculix, add a new attribute assertion. Set its Friendly Name and Name to whatever the SAML Service Provider expects for this attribute, and set Value to the following:

->(user) { if user.respond_to?(:member_of); user.member_of.map { |e| e.match(/CN=([^,]+)/)[1] }; else; nil end; }
