            <issuedTokenAuthentication samlSerializerType="Samples.CustomSamlSerializer, CustomSample" />
          </serviceCredentials>

Remarks

The issued tokens that this class uses are SAML tokens. Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) provides a default class SamlSerializer that is able to serialize and deserialize the majority of SAML tokens. If the service must process SAML tokens that contain elements that are not supported by the default serializer, this property can be used to provide a custom serializer capable of processing these elements.
