Metadata generation

The easiest way to obtain the metadata is by editing the configuration of each flow (DigiD, eHerkenning/eIDAS) in the admin. This also covers the eHerkenning dienstcatalogus.

The configuration admin provides links to view the metadata in the browser (or download it using cURL or similar tools).

Note

You may want to apply rate-limiting to this metadata endpoints at the webserver level. The metadata is generated on the fly and may be a source of Denial-Of-Service attacks.

For convenience reasons these URLs are public so they can easily be shared with the identity providers.

If you wish, you can still use management commands to generate the metadata.
