Recommendations

All SP SHOULD use the SWAMID Metadata and Trust metadata feed.Identity providers SHOULD use both SWAMID Metadata and Trust and SWAMID Metadata and Trust until SWAMID 1.0 has been fully deprecated.Identity Providers and Service Providers that are able to use the Metadata Query Protocol (MDQ) shall use that protocol instead of downloading metadata aggregates.
- Point your SAML implementation MDQ base url against https://mds.swamid.se/.
Service Providers (SP) that can't use the MDQ service should use the swamid-idp-transitive metadata feed:
- https://mds.swamid.se/md/swamid-idp-transitive.xml
- A service that must limit Identity Providers to those only registered in SWAMID can use the swamid-idp metadata feed:
  - https://mds.swamid.se/md/swamid-idp.xml
Identity Providers that can't use the MDQ service use the swamid-sp-transitive metadata feed metadata feed:
- https://mds.swamid.se/md/swamid-sp-transitive.xml
