How do you configure Sage Catalyst?

Modified on Mon, 25 Nov at 10:46 AM

There are several steps to configure Sage Catalyst:

  1. Tell us where we can get your IDP metadata from. This might be from an authentication federation that you are a member of, or this might be a direct link that your authentication team can provide you with. 
  2. Get our metadata from a number of different federations as we are members of EduGAIN. Alternatively, you can download our metadata from the URL that is also our Entity ID.
  3. Our Entity ID varies in different regions:
  4. You will need to release some attributes to our service provider: 
    • A minimum of the eduPersonTargetedID.
    • You may also want to release some additional attributes to ensure consistent user experience when they use the textbook annotation platform powered by Talis Elevate.
