SAML Assertions

[Maya Raman]

I am really confused about where to place SAML assertions - should it go into the wsse Security Header, contained in the SOAP header? or Should it go into the SOAP body?

If it will be in the SOAP Header, what would the SOAP body contain? would it be empty? Also, can I still encrypt assertions in the header, so that they won't be in cleartext?

If it should be in the SOAP body, well, I don't how to put it there. I am using wss4j.

Can someone PLEASE guide me on this, thanks!

Let's see if someone in the Web Services forum knows about this.

Just wanted to update that while most of my question about where to place it still remains, I did figure out how to encrypt them. Thanks!
