SamlSubject Class
Represents the subject of a SAML security token.
Assembly: System.IdentityModel (in System.IdentityModel.dll)
The SamlSubject type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | SamlSubject() | Initializes a new instance of the SamlSubject class. |
![]() | SamlSubject(String, String, String) | Initializes a new instance of the SamlSubject class using the specified name, the domain in which the name resides, and the format the name is in. |
![]() | SamlSubject(String, String, String, IEnumerable<String>, String, SecurityKeyIdentifier) | Initializes a new instance of the SamlSubject class using the specified name, the domain in which the name resides, the format the name is in, authentication protocols, additional authentication information, and a key identifier. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ConfirmationMethods | Gets a set of URI references that identify the protocols that should be used to authenticate the subject. |
![]() | Crypto | Gets or sets the cryptographic key that is used to verify the digital signature that is identified by this SAML subject statement. |
![]() | IsReadOnly | Gets a value that indicates whether the properties of this instance are read-only. |
![]() | KeyIdentifier | Gets or sets a key identifier that provides access to a cryptographic key held by the subject of the SAML security token. |
![]() | Name | Gets or sets the subject name of a SAML security token. |
![]() ![]() | NameClaimType | Gets the claim type that is used to represent the subject name of a SAML security token. |
![]() | NameFormat | Gets or sets a URI reference that represents the format that the subject name of a SAML security token is in. |
![]() | NameQualifier | Gets or sets the domain in which the subject name of a SAML security token resides in. |
![]() | SubjectConfirmationData | Gets or sets additional authentication information that can be used by authentication protocols. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ExtractClaims | Gets a set of claims using the properties of this class. |
![]() | ExtractSubjectKeyClaimSet | Gets a set of claims using the properties of this class and the specified SAML security token authenticator. |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MakeReadOnly | Causes this instance to be read-only. |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ReadXml | Reads the <saml:Subject> element from the specified XML reader. |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | WriteXml | Writes the <saml:Subject> element into the specified XML serializer. |
SamlSecurityToken security tokens specify their claims using SAML assertions, which can specify the subject of the security token. The claims in a SAML assertion are represented by SAML statements. The SAML specification defines a set of SAML statement types and one of them is a SamlSubjectStatement. A SamlSubjectStatement asserts the principal that is the subject of the SamlSecurityToken security token. This principal is specified using a SamlSubject class.
