Add a new claims-aware application to the Federation Service

Applies To: Windows Server 2003 R2

When you configure your Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS)–enabled Web server to host a claims-aware application, you must add a reference to that application in the trust policy so that you can specify application properties for the Federation Service. You can use the following procedure to add a new claims-aware application to the Federation Service. You perform this procedure on a federation server in the resource partner.

Administrative credentials

To complete this procedure, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer.

To add a new claims-aware application to the Federation Service

  1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Federation Services.

  2. Double-click Federation Service, double-click Trust Policy, double-click My Organization, right-click Applications, point to New, and then click Application.

  3. On the Welcome to the Add Application Wizard page, click Next.

  4. On the Application Type page, click Claims-aware application, and then click Next.

    Note

    The value in Application URL on this property page must match precisely the Return URL value (in <returnurl></returnurl>) that you specify in the web.config file of the claims-aware application (on the ADFS-enabled Web server).
