Hello! thanks for this awesome tutorial! Could you please let me know, if I need to send a XML metadata URL to the idp, how can I achieve this?
I am using the entity_ID of another application(django) which I need to pass to idP?

for django saml the parameter is "entity_id"...

Thanks for writing. At the moment I have an xml file with metadata in my local setup, but yes considering different environments we would need to send the xml metadata url to idp to have required metadata. I am yet to implement it for production level. If I figure it out , then I'll post it here. I hope I understood your question so that I can provide you my configuration setup.

router.get('/metadata', function(req, res){
  const decryptionCert = //certificate goes here
  res.type('application/xml');
  res.send(strategy.generateServiceProviderMetadata(decryptionCert,decryptionCert));
 }
);
