Skipping Discovery Service

AAF’s implementation of Rapid Connect allows service administrators to configure their service to skip discovery service and login directly through a specified IdP.

Getting started

Find the entityID of the IdP that you wish to directly login through. This can be done by looking through the AAF metadata or your own registrations.

AAF Test Metadata
For Example, the entityID for AAF Virtual Home is: https://vho.aaf.edu.au/idp/shibboleth

Sending the request

The unique URL for directing a user’s browser to Rapid Connect can be appended with a specific identity provider’s EntityID (if known).

For example:

https://application.com.au/jwt/authnrequest?entityID=https://vho.aaf.edu.au/idp/shibboleth
