Creating a WAYFless URL on Emerald Insight

Modified on Tue, 1 Jul at 3:23 PM

From 21st July, the WAYFless links for the new Insight platform will begin with:

https://www.emerald.com/Shibboleth.sso/Login?entityID=<EntityID>

All ICE customers and Insight customers who use WAYFless URLs, will need to update their stanza to the above format.


Current Insight

The basic format of Emerald's current WAYFless URLs is:

https://www.emerald.com/start-session?idp={ENTITY_ID}&return={TARGET_URL}

where:

ENTITY_ID = the institutions IdP Entity

TARGET_URL = the platform page the user should return to after logging in (Optional)


Example stanza

Linking to the homepage would therefore be as per this example (entity is Example Uni) 

https://www.emerald.com/start-session?idp=https://shibboleth.example.ac.uk/idp/shibboleth&return=


and


https://www.emerald.com/start-session?idp=https://shibboleth.example.ac.uk/idp/shibboleth&return=https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/issn/1757-0972

Would return to the TOC for advances in dual diagnosis


Please note, these stanza are for demonstration purposes only and are not live links.
