HCL Marketing Platform Administrator's Guide
HCL® Marketing Platform provides security, configuration, notification, and dashboard features for HCL® Marketing Software products.
HCL® Marketing Platform implements a SAML 2.0 based Identity Provider (IdP) that enables a single sign-on federation among HCL® Marketing Software products or between HCL Marketing Software products and third party applications.
Perform the procedures in this section to implement SAML 2.0 based federated authentication with HCL® ExperienceOne products.
When a user is authenticated and wants to access the services of another SP, call the following code on the SP side.
Use this information to troubleshoot issues when you use the client facade, or to develop your own SAML 2.0 implementation with the IdP server provided by HCL®.

Reference: RESTful services

Use this information to troubleshoot issues when you use the client facade, or to develop your own SAML 2.0 implementation with the IdP server provided by HCL®.

The REST APIs are implemented using an XML data payload. The SAML assertion is directly passed to the POST methods with digital signatures.

Only the POST method is supported for all verbs to ensure unified method access and to enforce security assertions, based on the XML payload. Other methods, such as GET, PUT, and DELETE, return an error message. The following table represents the verbs that implement the supported use cases.

Table 1. Supported verbs
Resource	Post
`<idp>/saml/token/clientId/forUserId/spId/create`	Generate new SAML token.
`<idp>/saml/token/clientId/forUserId/spId/validate`	Validate existing SAML token.
`<idp>/saml/token/clientId/forUserId/spId/delete`	Delete existing SAML token.
