The basic procedure is the same as the case of OneLogin which is mentioned in [OneLogin-Guide](./saml-onelogin.md). If you want to match your IdP, you can use more configurations as below.
-* If your IdP accepts metadata XML of the service provider to ease configuration, use this url to download metadata XML.
- * {{your-serverurl}}/auth/saml/metadata
- * _Note: If not accessible from IdP, download to local once and upload to IdP._
-* Change the value of `issuer`, `identifierFormat` to match your IdP.
- * `issuer`: A unique id to identify the application to the IdP, which is the base URL of your CodiMD as default
- * `identifierFormat`: A format of unique id to identify the user of IdP, which is the format based on email address as default. It is recommend that you use as below.
- * urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:emailAddress (default)
- * urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified
- * `config.json`:
