Set SSO binding properties

Bindings use artifact resolution protocol to resolve SAML identity provided messages by reference.

To set the bind/transport authentication for clients, locate the spectrum-config-sso-sts.properties file in SpectrumDirectory\conf\spring\security directory. Set the binding types using the following property

spectrum.sso.idp.destinationBindingType=Property for the binding type configuration

For example:

spectrum.sso.idp.destinationBindingType=urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:
2.0:bindings:HTTP-Redirect
spectrum.saml.sts.idp.type=ADFS

Table 1. Binding types
Binding type	Definition
REDIRECT	Allows SAML protocol messages to be transmitted within URL parameters: This binding is used when the SAML requester and responder need to communicate using an HTTP user agent as an intermediary, but there is no direct path between the two.
POST	Allows SAML protocol messages to be transmitted within the base64-encoded content of an HTML form control: Similarly to the REDIRECT binding, POST is used when the SAML requester and responder need to communicate using an HTTP user agent as an intermediary, but there is no direct path between the two. Additionally, this binding may be needed if the responder requires interaction with the user, such as authentication.
`Artifact`	Allows the SAML request, the SAML response, or both of these to be transmitted as a reference, using a small stand-in called an artifact: The HTTP Artifact binding is used when the SAML requester and responder need to communicate using an HTTP user agent as an intermediary, but the intermediary's cannot accept or allow an entire message to be sent through it.
