#|
||Field | Description ||
|| organization_id | **string**

Required field. ID of the organization to create a federation in.
To get the organization ID, make a [yandex.cloud.organizationmanager.v1.OrganizationService.List](../../../../api-ref/grpc/Organization/list.md#List) request.

The maximum string length in characters is 50. ||
|| name | **string**

Required field. Name of the federation.
The name must be unique within the organization.

Value must match the regular expression ` [a-z]([-a-z0-9]{0,61}[a-z0-9])? `. ||
|| description | **string**

Description of the federation.

The maximum string length in characters is 256. ||
|| cookie_max_age | **[google.protobuf.Duration](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/csharp/class/google/protobuf/well-known-types/duration)**

Browser cookie lifetime in seconds.
If the cookie is still valid, the management console
authenticates the user immediately and redirects them to the home page.
The default value is `8h`. ||
|| auto_create_account_on_login | **bool**

Add new users automatically on successful authentication.
The user becomes member of the organization automatically,
but you need to grant other roles to them.
If the value is `false`, users who aren't added to the organization
can't log in, even if they have authenticated on your server. ||
|| issuer | **string**

Required field. ID of the IdP server to be used for authentication.
The IdP server also responds to IAM with this ID after the user authenticates.

The maximum string length in characters is 8000. ||
|| sso_binding | enum **BindingType**

Required field. Single sign-on endpoint binding type. Most Identity Providers support the `POST` binding type.
SAML Binding is a mapping of a SAML protocol message onto standard messaging
formats and/or communications protocols.

- `POST`: HTTP POST binding.
- `REDIRECT`: HTTP redirect binding.
- `ARTIFACT`: HTTP artifact binding. ||
|| sso_url | **string**

Required field. Single sign-on endpoint URL.
Specify the link to the IdP login page here.

The maximum string length in characters is 8000. ||
|| security_settings | **[FederationSecuritySettings](#yandex.cloud.organizationmanager.v1.saml.FederationSecuritySettings)**

Federation security settings. ||
|| case_insensitive_name_ids | **bool**

Use case insensitive Name IDs. ||
|| labels | **object** (map<**string**, **string**>)

Resource labels as `` key:value `` pairs.

The maximum string length in characters for each value is 63. The string length in characters for each key must be 1-63. Each key must match the regular expression ` [a-z][-_0-9a-z]* `. Each value must match the regular expression ` [-_0-9a-z]* `. No more than 64 per resource. ||
|#

## FederationSecuritySettings {#yandex.cloud.organizationmanager.v1.saml.FederationSecuritySettings}

Federation security settings.

#|
||Field | Description ||
|| encrypted_assertions | **bool**

Enable encrypted assertions. ||
|| force_authn | **bool**

Value parameter ForceAuthn in SAMLRequest. ||
|#

## operation.Operation {#yandex.cloud.operation.Operation}

```json
{
  "id": "string",
  "description": "string",
  "created_at": "google.protobuf.Timestamp",
  "created_by": "string",
  "modified_at": "google.protobuf.Timestamp",
  "done": "bool",
  "metadata": "google.protobuf.Any",
  // Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`
  "error": "google.rpc.Status",
  "response": "google.protobuf.Any"
  // end of the list of possible fields
}
```

An Operation resource. For more information, see [Operation](../../../../../api-design-guide/concepts/operation.md).

#|
||Field | Description ||
|| id | **string**

ID of the operation. ||
|| description | **string**

Description of the operation. 0-256 characters long. ||
|| created_at | **[google.protobuf.Timestamp](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/google.protobuf#timestamp)**

Creation timestamp. ||
|| created_by | **string**

ID of the user or service account who initiated the operation. ||
|| modified_at | **[google.protobuf.Timestamp](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/google.protobuf#timestamp)**

The time when the Operation resource was last modified. ||
|| done | **bool**

If the value is `false`, it means the operation is still in progress.
If `true`, the operation is completed, and either `error` or `response` is available. ||
|| metadata | **[google.protobuf.Any](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#any)**

Service-specific metadata associated with the operation.
It typically contains the ID of the target resource that the operation is performed on.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any. ||
|| error | **[google.rpc.Status](https://cloud.google.com/tasks/docs/reference/rpc/google.rpc#status)**

The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation.

Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`.

The operation result.
If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set.
If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set.
If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set. ||
|| response | **[google.protobuf.Any](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3#any)**

The normal response of the operation in case of success.
If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete,
the response is [google.protobuf.Empty](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/reference/google.protobuf#google.protobuf.Empty).
If the original method is the standard Create/Update,
the response should be the target resource of the operation.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the response type, if any.

Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`.

The operation result.
If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set.
If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set.
If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set. ||
