Scripting a Policy Condition

In this procedure, add an address value to the demo user's profile. The default policy condition script uses the address when performing policy evaluation.

1. Log in as an AM administrator, for example amAdmin.

2. Select Realms > Top Level Realm > Identities.

3. On the Identities tab, select the demo user.

4. In Home Address, enter a valid address. For example:

   201 Mission St, Suite 2900, San Francisco, CA 94105

5. Select Save Changes.

In this procedure, add a user to a group and assign the privilege required to perform policy evaluations.

1. Log in as an AM administrator, for example amAdmin.

2. Select Realms > Top Level Realm > Identities.

3. Select Add Identity, enter an ID for the identity, such as restPolicyUser, complete the required fields, and then select Create.

4. Return to Realms > Top Level Realm > Identities. On the Groups tab, select Add Group, enter an ID for the group, such as policyEval, and then select Create.

5. Return to Realms > Top Level Realm > Identities.

   1. Select the user you created, for example, restPolicyUser.

   2. Select the Groups tab.

   3. In the Name box, select the group created in step 4, for example policyEval.

   4. Select Save Changes.

6. Select Realms > Top Level Realm > Identities > Groups.

7. Select the group created in step 4, for example policyEval.

8. On the Privileges tab, select Policy Admin.

9. Select Save Changes.

In this procedure, create a policy that uses the default policy condition script. Policy evaluations can then be performed to test the script functionality.

1. Log in as an AM administrator, for example amAdmin.

2. Select Realms > Top Level Realm > Authorization > Policy Sets.

3. On the Policy Sets page, select Default Policy Set.

4. On the Default Policy Set page, select Add a Policy.

5. Define the policy as follows:

   1. Enter a name for the policy.

   2. Define resources to which the policy applies:

      1. Select URL from the Resource Type drop down list.

      2. Select the resource pattern *://*:*/* from the Resources drop down list.

      3. Select Add.

         The *://*:*/* resource appears in the Resources field.

      4. Select Add Resource to add a second resource to the policy.

      5. Select the resource pattern *://*:*/*?* from the Resources drop down list.

      6. Select Add.

         The *://*:*/*?* resource appears along with the *://*:*/* resource in the Resources field.

      7. Select Create to create the policy.

         The Resources tab appears as follows:

         

   3. Specify actions to which the policy applies:

      1. Select the Actions tab.

      2. Select GET from the Add an Action drop down list.

      3. The GET action appears in the list of actions. The default state for the GET action is Allow.

         The Actions tab appears as follows:

         

      4. Select Save Changes.

   4. Configure identities to which the policy applies:

      1. Select the Subjects tab.

      2. Select the edit icon—the pencil.

      3. Select Authenticated Users from the Type drop down list.

      4. Select the OK icon—the check mark.

         The Subjects tab appears as follows:

         

      5. Select Save Changes.

   5. Configure environments in which the policy applies:

      1. Select the Environments tab.

      2. Select Add an Environment Condition.

      6. Select Save Changes.

   6. No additional configuration is required in the Response Attributes or Details tabs.

This procedure shows how to enable trace-level debug logging for scripted policy conditions, so that logger output from the default policy condition script is recorded.

1. Ensure that the script containing the debug output you want to capture has executed at least once to create the logger.

   The name of the scripted policy decision logger has the format: scripts.POLICY_CONDITION.script-UUID.

2. Log in as the AM administrator, amAdmin.

3. Go to the Logback.jsp page, for example: https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/Logback.jsp.

4. In the Logger list, scroll to select the scripted policy decision logger; for example scripts.POLICY_CONDITION.9de3eb62-f131-4fac-a294-7bd170fd4acb.

5. From the Level list, choose the debug level required. In this example, select Trace.

6. Click Apply.

   

   Trace-level debug logging is now enabled for scripted policy conditions, with script output appearing in the /path/to/openam/var/debug/Policy debug log file.

   Changes made in the Logback.jsp page are not persisted after rebooting AM or the container in which it runs.

   For more information on configuring debug logging, see Debug Logging.

1. Obtain an SSO token for the demo user:

   $ curl \
   --request POST \
   --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
   --header "X-OpenAM-Username: demo" \
   --header "X-OpenAM-Password: Ch4ng31t" \
   --header "Accept-API-Version: resource=2.0, protocol=1.0" \
   'https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/json/realms/root/realms/alpha/authenticate'
   {
       "tokenId":"AQIC5wM...TU3OQ*",
       "successUrl":"/openam/console",
       "realm":"/alpha"
   }

2. Obtain an SSO token for the user who has the privilege required to evaluate policies. For example, restPolicyUser.

   $ curl \
   --request POST \
   --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
   --header "X-OpenAM-Username: restPolicyUser" \
   --header "X-OpenAM-Password: myStrongPassword" \
   --header "Accept-API-Version: resource=2.0, protocol=1.0" \
   'https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/json/realms/root/realms/alpha/authenticate'
   {
       "tokenId":"AQIC8aF...TA1OQ*",
       "successUrl":"/openam/console",
       "realm":"/alpha"
   }

3. Send an evaluation request to the policies endpoint, providing the SSO token of the restPolicyUser user as the value of the iPlanetDirectoryPro header.

   In the JSON data, set the subject object to the SSO token of the demo user. In the resources object, include a URL that resides on a server in the same country as the address set for the demo user. In the environment object, include an IP address that is also based in the same country as the user and the resource.

   The example below uses the URL of a web site and an IP address located in the United States:

   $ curl \
   --request POST \
   --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
   --header "iPlanetDirectoryPro: AQIC8aF...TA1OQ*" \
   --data '{
       "resources":[
           "https://www.us-site.com:8443/index.html"
       ],
       "application":"iPlanetAMWebAgentService",
       "subject":{
           "ssoToken":"AQIC5wM...TU3OQ*"
       },
       "environment":{
           "IP":[
               "38.99.39.210"
           ]
       }
   }' \
   "https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/json/realms/root/policies?_action=evaluate"
   {
       "advices":{},
       "ttl":9223372036854775807,
       "resource":"https://www.us-site.com:8443/index.html",
       "actions":{
           "POST":true,
           "GET":true
       },
       "attributes":{
           "countryOfOrigin":[
               "United States"
           ]
       }
   }

   If the country in the subject's profile matches the country determined from the source IP in the environment and the country determined from the resource URL, then AM returns a list of actions available. The script will also add an attribute to the response called countryOfOrigin with the country as the value.

   If the countries do not match, no actions are returned. In the following example, the resource URL is based in France, while the IP and user's address in the profile are based in the United States:

   $ curl \
   --request POST \
   --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
   --header "iPlanetDirectoryPro: AQIC8aF...TA1OQ*" \
   --data '{
       "resources":[
           "https://www.france-site.com:8443/index.html"
       ],
       "application":"iPlanetAMWebAgentService",
       "subject":{
           "ssoToken":"AQIC5wM...TU3OQ*"
       },
       "environment":{
           "IP":[
               "38.99.39.210"
           ]
       }
   }' \
   "https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/json/realms/root/policies?_action=evaluate"
   {
       "advices": {},
       "ttl": 9223372036854775807,
       "resource": "https://www.france-site.com:8443/index.html",
       "actions": {},
       "attributes": {}
   }
