By default eduTEAMS Discovery Service lists all eduGAIN IdPs for user to select from. This is not always desirable and therefore eduTEAMS Discovery Service offers possiblity possibility to filter IdPs from the list. This allows SP admin to craft a list (or several lists) specifically targeting the user base of the SP.

When both entity categories and idp list filters are used together, the list shown comprises of IdPs not filtered out by categories filter with possible additions of IdP allow list or possible deductions of IdP deny list. The assumption is that SP creates the base of the rules using categories filtering and then possible exceptions to those rules by Allow/Deny lists of IdPs. |

The filter produced generated with the tool is set as query string parameter to eduTeams Discovery Service URL for the discovery request. It can be set either by value or by reference.
