Personal Identity

With the personal identity configuration, a service gets the assertion from the personal part of an edu-ID identity - regardless of any current affiliations.

In the diagram above, the service would only get the attribute assertion P.

Note that a service can request additional attributes (the red dashed box above) that are typically only supported by the edu-ID IdP like group membership, attribute quality statements or the ORCID identifier.

Optionally, a service can get limited affiliation information from linked current affiliations by configuring and evaluating the following attributes:

  • the list of organizational unique-IDs (swissEduIDLinkedAffiliationUniqueID)
  • the list of organizational email addresses (swissEduIDLinkedAffiliationMail)
  • the list of organizational scoped-affiliations (swissEduIDLinkedAffiliation)
