Description 

The attribute eduPersonTargetedID is a copy of the Subject -> NameID which is generated by SURFconext itself. When an Identity Provider provides the eduPersonTargetedID itself, it is always overwritten by SURFconext.

Notes 

This attribute is created because the Subject -> NameID itself is not part of the SAML v2.0 response and therefore only is available for application if the local SAML implementation explicitly support this. Within SURFconext the Subject -> NameID is explicitly copied into the eduPersonTargetedID attribute, in order for the identifier to be used like any other attribute.
