1. Your institution must have a SAML-based Identity Provider (IdP) whose metadata we can consume via a stable URL and which defines a security domain using shibMD:scope. This is most commonly achieved through membership to an identity federation that participates in eduGAIN.  The following federations have been confirmed to support access to Fulcrum via eduGAIN as of November 2019:
   • Canadian Access Federation (CAF)
   • HEAnet / Edugate
   • InCommon
   • UK Federation
2. Your Identity Provider must be configured to release attribute 'eduPersonScopedAffiliation' to entityId 'https://fulcrum.org/sp'.
3. You must provide us with the entityId of your Identity Provider.

Please note that Fulcrum is not a member of OpenAthens Federation. You must participate in another identity federation to take advantage of SSO integration. 

WAYFless URLs

If you have Shibboleth/SSO access set up, the Handle URLs in the MARC records can be modified to create WAYFless URLs. This will allow your patrons to authenticate at your institutional portal without encountering a login prompt on Fulcrum. If the patron already has an active session with your institution's Identity Provider, then their access will be seamless.

To make an HEB URL into a WAYFless URL, append the following:

?urlappend=%3fentityID=[your institution's entityID]

For example, a WAYFless version of https://hdl.handle.net/2027/heb00967 for the University of Michigan would be:

https://hdl.handle.net/2027/heb00967?urlappend=%3fentityID=https://shibboleth.umich.edu/idp/shibboleth

While we try to avoid Handles that resolve to Fulcrum URLs that contain query parameters (e.g. "?locale=en"), if such an exception occurs, the WAYFless URL syntax above will result in an error. In these cases, please append the following instead:

?urlappend=%26entityID=[your institution's entityID]

To create a WAYFless link to the collection as a whole:

https://www.fulcrum.org/heb?entityID=[your institution's entityID]
