 # aws-saml-scripts
-Contains some scripts to integrate a SAML IDP with an AWS account and enable roles called administrator and readonly
+This repo will contain some scripts to integrate a SAML IDP with an AWS account and enable roles called administrator and readonly.
+This is only part of a two step process when integrating an AWS account with a SAML provider. The SAML IDP will still need to 
+be configured to release the appropriate attributes and values.
+
+
+# modify shibpolicy.json
+## change the AWS account number (123456789012) to the actual number
+## change the value after saml-provider/ to the name you want to call the IDP (a hostname is usually a good practice)
+# put the IDP metadata in idp.xml (right now, it contains the IDP metdata for login.at.internet.edu, the ICP SAML Proxy)
+# run the create script:
+## ICP integration: create_saml_aws.sh login.at.internet2.edu
+## or: create_saml_aws.sh idp_name
+
