It handles the core SAML2 protocol flows\u2014HTTP-REDIRECT and HTTP-POST bindings for both SSO and SLO (single logout)\u2014and provides discovery service support and an embedded WAYF (Where Are You From) page. The package depends on defusedxml for secure XML parsing and pysaml2 for the underlying SAML2 protocol implementation.\n\nTypical use involves configuring SAML2 metadata and IdP details in Django settings, then routing authentication requests through djangosaml2's views. It's designed for organizations integrating with existing federated identity systems (such as Shibboleth or commercial IdPs) rather than building a new identity provider from scratch.","worth_installing":"Yes. Djangosaml2 is actively maintained, supports current Django and Python versions, has no known vulnerabilities, and carries a permissive license. Install it if you need SAML2 SSO integration; skip it if your authentication requirements are simpler (e.g., OAuth2, OIDC, or local users)."},"id":"djangosaml2","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/djangosaml2","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/djangosaml2.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/djangosaml2/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-02-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"djangosaml2","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"pysaml2 integration for Django"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":503856,"position":6300,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.12.0"}
