How is SP Metadata File generated

We are using ComponentSpace and have it working with customers. We need to SSO with other customers who are asking for SP Metadata file. How do I generate this file? Is there a common place I should look at to retrieve values? Are EntityID and Consume Service Endpoints the only values needed?

Also, is there a way to test the metadata file?

Please take a look at our SAML Metadata Guide.

https://www.componentspace.com/Forums/9354/SAML-Metadata-Guide

We include utility projects under the Examples\Metadata folder for generating SAML metadata. These are described in our guide.

Please note that your SP metadata and SAML configuration (eg saml.config file) must be consistent. For example, the Name corresponds to the metadata entityID.
