At this time, FusionAuth does not support changing WantAssertionsSigned to true in the generated SAML metadata. This value is hard-coded and cannot be modified through IdP configuration or other settings.
From a practical standpoint, this should not impact security or standards compliance. FusionAuth signs the entire SAML response using the verification key configured in the IdP. Since the assertion is part of the signed response, signing the assertion itself would be redundant and is not required by the SAML specification.
If your client strictly requires WantAssertionsSigned="true" due to a non-standard or legacy implementation, this would need to be addressed on the Service Provider side, as FusionAuth cannot currently emit metadata with that value set to true.
