Thanks I'm using the same cert and key exported from the cert that is in the SSL profile tied to the VIP the access policy is tied to.  I exported the metadata file with those settings and sent it to the IDP and they sent me their metadata file which I used to create the connector.  This is the first time I've set this up so it's for me to know if it's my configuration or theirs.  Now I'm also getting an issue where all of the attributes they send over in the XML file when it's unecrypted are showing up under one variable value instead of each individual one.  Maybe there is an issue with 17.1?

Better open a support case if you think that there is an issue.

 

 

Edit:

 

17.1 Is really new so  I wouldn't be using it except for if there is a need for JWT Oauth encrypted tokens that are supported by it.
