Resolve
Specify the custom claim name in the trust policy file
This claim error occurs only if the trust policy file has been modified without the use of the Active Directory Federation Services snap-in.
In the trust policy file, specify the custom claim name in the section CustomClaimName.
To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the local Administrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To specify the custom claim name in the trust policy file:
- In Notepad or another text editor, open the TrustPolicy.xml file that, by default, is in %systemdrive%\windows\systemdata\adfs.
- Add the custom claim name to the customclaimname section.
Verify
Verify that you can access the Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)-enabled application from a client browser and that the resource can be accessed.
