Hidden function authnRequest.toXMLString()

Having the authnRequest.toXMLString() method is highly useful because it allows us to convert the authentication request object into a well-structured XML format. This is particularly beneficial for debugging and troubleshooting SAML requests, as it provides a clear view of the request’s structure, attributes, and values.

By using toXMLString(), we can easily review the exact XML that will be sent to the Identity Provider (IdP), ensuring compliance with SAML protocol standards and catching potential issues before they arise.

function preSignResponse () \{

logger.error(“xxxxx preSignResponse”);

var authRequest = authnRequest.toXMLString() ;

logger.error(“xxxxx AuthRequest” + authRequest );

}
