# Get a SAML service provider certificate (Beta)

GET https://api.sigmacomputing.com/v2/saml/service-providers/{samlServiceProviderId}/certificates/{samlServiceProviderCertificateId}

Get a certificate to use with your IdP when configuring Sigma as a service provider.

**Beta**: This documentation describes a public beta feature and is subject to the [Beta features](/docs/sigma-product-releases#beta-features) disclaimer.

### Usage notes
- To perform this operation, you must use API credentials owned by a user assigned the Admin account type.
- Retrieve the `samlServiceProviderId` by calling the [/saml/service-providers](https://help.sigmacomputing.com/reference/list-saml-service-providers) endpoint.
- Retrieve the `samlServiceProviderCertificateId` by calling the [/saml/service-providers/certificates](https://help.sigmacomputing.com/reference/list-saml-service-provider-certificates) endpoint.
- Signing certificates are used by your IdP to verify signatures that Sigma attaches to SAML requests.
- Encryption certificates are used by your IdP to encrypt SAML responses sent to Sigma.
