Error generating SAML token using SAML Policy.

[abrahamdivyatej]

HI all,

I am new to the concept of SAML Authentication/Authorization, i tried creating a simple No Target API proxy which will generate a SAML Token and send it as a response to the client. But when i tried creating one and tried tracing the API Proxy, i get the below error.

{"fault":{"faultstring":"GenerateSAMLAssertion[Generate_SAML]: Error transforming assertion into message.","detail":{"errorcode":"steps.saml.generate.ErrorUpdatingPayload"}}}

Steps which i followed in creating the proxy are:

1. Created a Self Signed Certifcate and uploaded it to key store

2. Created a No Target Proxy

a. Added a "Generate SAML Assertion" at the Post Flow, below is the SAML Policy

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
