Re: [Dataverse-Users] Shibboleth attributes

[Philip Durbin]

No, no other Shib attributes are required.

You're right that the superuser dashboard shows "Name" but under the covers it's first and last combined:

<h:outputText value="#{user.firstName} #{user.lastName}" />

If you sign up with a builtin account (any account, really), you'll also note that there are separate fields for first and last name. They're stored separately in the database: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/5.6/schemaspy/tables/authenticateduser.html

Hi all

Understand from https://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/installation/shibboleth.html?highlight=shibboleth#shibboleth-attributes that the Shib attributes required are:

• Shib-Identity-Provider
• eppn
• givenName
• sn
• email

Could I ask if other Shib attributes are used but not strictly required as well? 

E.g. displayName. As a superuser, the user dashboard has this column called "Name". For Shib users, this does not look like a straightforward "Given name, Last name" combination. 

Kind regards,

Eunice
