Examples

string identityProviderUri = Request.QueryString["whr"];
string action = Request.QueryString["wa"];

SignInRequestMessage signInRequest = FederatedAuthentication.WSFederationAuthenticationModule.CreateSignInRequest(Guid.NewGuid().ToString(), 
                                                                                                                  "http://MyAppreturnUrl", 
                                                                                                                  false);
signInRequest.Realm = "htp://MyApp.com";
signInRequest.HomeRealm = identityProviderUri;

Response.Redirect(signInRequest.RequestUrl);

Remarks

A WS-Federation sign-in message is sent by a relying party (RP) to a security token service (STS) to request a security token. The wa parameter must be set to "wsignout1.0" and the wtrealm parameter should be set to the security realm of the requested resource (this is often the URL of the requested resource). Other optional parameters may also be specified in the request.

A SignOutRequestMessage message is created by the static methods of the SignOutRequestMessage class, for example the CreateFromUri method, when the wa parameter is set to "wsignin1.0", there is no wresult or wresultptr parameter present, and either a wtrealm parameter or a wreply parameter is present.

Important

For backward compatibility with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) version 1.0, Windows Identity Foundation (WIF) allows either the wtrealm parameter or the wreply parameter to be set (or both) for a sign-in message to be valid; however, the WS-Federation protocol requires that the wtrealm parameter be present in a sign-in request. In most scenarios, you should ensure that the wtrealm parameter is specified.

The SignInRequestMessage class exposes several properties that can be used to set or access individual message parameters. These parameters can also be set or accessed through the Parameters dictionary. For example, you can read the wtrealm parameter in the message either through the Realm property or by specifying "wtrealm" as the key to the Parameters dictionary.

For more information about the message that this class represents, see section 13 of the following specification: Web Services Federation Language (WS-Federation) Version 1.2.
