Guidelines on expressing group membership and role information

Information about the groups a user is a member of is commonly used by SPs to authorise user access to protected resources. Apart from the group information that is managed by the user’s home IdP, research communities usually operate their own group managing services. Such services often act as Attribute Authorities, maintaining additional information about the users, including VO membership, group membership within VOs, as well as user roles. It is therefore necessary that all involved SPs and IdPs/AAs can interpret this information in a uniform way. Specifically, the following challenges are addressed by this document:

    • Standardising the way group membership information is expressed, both syntactically and semantically
    • Indicating the entity that is authoritative for each piece of group membership information
    • Expressing VO membership and role information
    • Supporting group hierarchies in group membership information
