Setting up SAML authentication for an application can be a complex process, but testing and verifying the configuration is crucial. IAMShowcase is a website that acts as a SAML v2 SP to test FusionAuth's IdP setup. To use IAMShowcase, you need to create a new application in FusionAuth, retrieve the required metadata values from the IAMShowcase site, configure these values in FusionAuth, and then add a user to the application. Finally, you need to upload the IDP metadata to the IAMShowcase site to complete the setup. This process allows you to test the SAML workflow before integrating your application with other SAML SPs, ensuring that everything is set up correctly for secure authentication.
