pysaml2 usage - Missing entity_id specification

What is the proper format for data to initialize the pysaml2 client? The library complains that Missing entity_id specification, despite there being an entityID in the xml (below).

spConfig = Saml2Config()  spConfig.load({      'metadata': {          'inline': [idp_metadata],      },      'service': {          'sp': {              'endpoints': {                  'assertion_consumer_service': [                      (acs_url, BINDING_HTTP_REDIRECT),                      (acs_url, BINDING_HTTP_POST),                      (https_acs_url, BINDING_HTTP_REDIRECT),                      (https_acs_url, BINDING_HTTP_POST)                  ],              },              # Don't verify that the incoming requests originate from us via              # the built-in cache for authn request ids in pysaml2              'allow_unsolicited': True,              # Don't sign authn requests, since signed requests only make              # sense in a situation where you control both the SP and IdP              'authn_requests_signed': False,              'logout_requests_signed': True,              'want_assertions_signed': True,              'want_response_signed': False,          },      },  })  saml_client = Saml2Client(config=spConfig)  

XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>  <md:EntityDescriptor    entityID="http://www.okta.com/[redacted]"     xmlns:md="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:metadata">  ...  

The library version is the most recent. python 3.10 running on macOS Catalina.
