Issue

  • When SAML module is configured and integrated with an Azure B2C and we need to map a parameter to a Liferay parameter, a problem might occur due to a whitespace: 
    <saml:Attribute FriendlyName="Given Name" Name="Given Name"

    NameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:basic">

    <saml:AttributeValue xsi:type="xs:string">Ferran</saml:AttributeValue> </saml:Attribute>

Environment

  • DXP 7.3

Resolution

  • Liferay occasionally has a problem reading those whitespaces from the console configuration, therefore we need to create a specific Azure field for Liferay, leaving the original Name field for the rest of the systems connected to the SSO.

    • Please change the Name in the Azure B2C configuration to avoid it having whitespaces
