SamlProvider

class aws_cdk.aws_iam.SamlProvider(scope, id, *, metadata_document, name=None)

Bases: Resource

A SAML provider.

ExampleMetadata:

infused

Example:

provider = iam.SamlProvider(self, "Provider",
    metadata_document=iam.SamlMetadataDocument.from_file("/path/to/saml-metadata-document.xml")
)
iam.Role(self, "Role",
    assumed_by=iam.SamlConsolePrincipal(provider)
)
Parameters:
  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • metadata_document (SamlMetadataDocument) – An XML document generated by an identity provider (IdP) that supports SAML 2.0. The document includes the issuer’s name, expiration information, and keys that can be used to validate the SAML authentication response (assertions) that are received from the IdP. You must generate the metadata document using the identity management software that is used as your organization’s IdP.

  • name (Optional[str]) – The name of the provider to create. This parameter allows a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@- Length must be between 1 and 128 characters. Default: - a CloudFormation generated name

Methods

apply_removal_policy(policy)

Apply the given removal policy to this resource.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you’ve removed it from the CDK application or because you’ve made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

Parameters:

policy (RemovalPolicy) –

Return type:

None

to_string()

Returns a string representation of this construct.

Return type:

str

Attributes

env

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

node

The tree node.

saml_provider_arn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the provider.

stack

The stack in which this resource is defined.

Static Methods

classmethod from_saml_provider_arn(scope, id, saml_provider_arn)

Import an existing provider.

Parameters:
  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • saml_provider_arn (str) –

Return type:

ISamlProvider

classmethod is_construct(x)

Checks if x is a construct.

Use this method instead of instanceof to properly detect Construct instances, even when the construct library is symlinked.

Explanation: in JavaScript, multiple copies of the constructs library on disk are seen as independent, completely different libraries. As a consequence, the class Construct in each copy of the constructs library is seen as a different class, and an instance of one class will not test as instanceof the other class. npm install will not create installations like this, but users may manually symlink construct libraries together or use a monorepo tool: in those cases, multiple copies of the constructs library can be accidentally installed, and instanceof will behave unpredictably. It is safest to avoid using instanceof, and using this type-testing method instead.

Parameters:

x (Any) – Any object.

Return type:

bool

Returns:

true if x is an object created from a class which extends Construct.

classmethod is_owned_resource(construct)

Returns true if the construct was created by CDK, and false otherwise.

Parameters:

construct (IConstruct) –

Return type:

bool

classmethod is_resource(construct)

Check whether the given construct is a Resource.

Parameters:

construct (IConstruct) –

Return type:

bool
