Hi Query King,
There is two way to export the ADFS Metadata. Please see the steps below.
Via GUI
The specified path for ADFS 2.0 Metadata is https://ADFS-ServerName/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml, Replace ADFS-ServerName with your actual server name.
-
Go to Internet Explorer or any web browser.
-
Type https://ADFS-ServerName/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml
-
Go to File Menu and click on “Save As…”, Enter the name for XML file and click on Save.
Via PowerShell
-
Login into your ADFS Server and Start "Windows PowerShell Modules" not ""Windows PowerShell"
-
Run below command.
$mdbUrl = (Get-ADFSEndpoint | where-object {$_.Protocol -eq "Federation Metadata"}).FullUrl.ToString()
$httpHelper = new-object System.Net.WebClient
$metadataAsString = $httpHelper.DownloadString($mdbUrl)
$httpHelper.DownloadFile($mdbUrl , "C:\Users\$($env:username)\Desktop\metadata.xml")
Hope it will help you.
Thank Santosh, 2nd Option is rather easier.
