OIDC user info claims

This plugin extension point is invoked when issuing an ID token or during a request to the /userinfo OIDC endpoint. Use this script to retrieve claim values based on an issued access token.

Default script: To view the default script, including the available script properties, refer to oidc-claims-extension.groovy.

To view or modify the default script in the AM admin UI, go to Realms > Realm Name > Scripts and select OIDC Claims Script.

Example user info claims plugin

Complete the following steps to implement an example user info claims script that adds a custom claim to the profile scope:

Configure the user info claims script
Configure AM to use the user info claims script
Create an OAuth2 client for authorization
Try the custom user info claims plugin script

This example is implemented using a script. For a version that uses Java, refer to How do I add custom claims to the OIDC Claims Script? in the Knowledge Base.

Configure the user info claims script

This task describes how to modify the default script to map a custom claim. To create a new script instead, refer to the steps described in Manage scripts (UI), and reference the new script name when you configure the provider.

In the AM admin UI, go to Realms > Realm Name > Scripts, and click OIDC Claims Script.

In the Script field:

Add a new claim to the script. As a simple example, insert myTestName after the name claim in the claimAttributes section, as follows:

claimAttributes = [
    "email": userProfileClaimResolver.curry("mail"),
    ...
    "name": userProfileClaimResolver.curry("cn"),
    "myTestName": userProfileClaimResolver.curry("cn")
]

Add the new claim to the profile scope in the claims map:

scopeClaimsMap = [
    "email": [ "email" ],
    ...
    "profile": [ "given_name", "zoneinfo", "family_name", "locale", "name", "myTestName" ]

For a more complex example of customizing the user info claims script, refer to How do I add a session property claim to the OIDC Claims Script? in the Knowledge Base.

You can also use the script to override the claims included in an ID token. For example, you can add a post_logout_url claim that redirects a user’s browser to the URL specified in the claim, when that user signs out of an End User UI.

The following example adds a final item to claimAttributes to return https://forgerock.com as the post_logout_url claim. Adapt the method used to return the appropriate URL for your application:

claimAttributes = [
        //...,
        "post_logout_url": { claim, identity -> return [(claim.getName()): "https://forgerock.com"] }
]

Add the claim for the fr:idm:* scope as a final item in the scopeClaimsMap:

scopeClaimsMap = [
        //...,
        "fr:idm:*": [ "post_logout_url" ]
]

For more information, refer to How do I override claims in the OIDC ID token in Identity Cloud or AM? in the Knowledge Base.

Save your changes.

The default user info claims script is now amended to retrieve a custom claim for the profile scope.

This script accesses the /userinfo endpoint and retrieves claims from the profile scope only. To retrieve all scopes and claims, use the /introspect endpoint.

Configure AM to use the user info claims script

Perform this task to set up an OAuth2 provider to use your custom script.

Log in to the AM admin UI as an administrator.

For example, amAdmin.
Configure the provider to ensure the following properties are set:
- OIDC Claims Plugin Type to SCRIPTED.
- OIDC Script to OIDC Claims Script.
If you created a new script rather than editing the default, you must reference the new script name here.
Save your changes.

Create an OAuth2 client for authorization

Create a public OAuth 2.0 client to use in the authorization request.

In the AM admin UI, go to Realms > Realm Name > Applications > OAuth 2.0 > Clients, and click Add Client.
Enter the following values:
- Client ID: myClient
- Client secret: forgerock
- Redirection URIs: https://www.example.com:443/callback
- Scope(s): openid profile
Click Create.
In the Core tab, set Client type to Public.
In the Advanced tab, set the following values:
- Grant Types: Implicit
- Token Endpoint Authentication Method: none
- Grant Types: token id_token

AM is now prepared for you to try the sample user info claims script.

Try the custom user info claims plugin script

To try your custom script, use the Implicit grant flow as demonstrated in the following steps.

$ 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"
}

Note the SSO token value returned as tokenId in the output.

Invoke the authorization server’s /oauth2/authorize endpoint specifying the SSO token value in a cookie, and the following parameters as a minimum:
- client_id=myClient
- response_type=token id_token
- scope=openid profile
- nonce=your nonce value
- redirect_uri=https://www.example.com:443/callback
- decision=allow
- csrf=SSO-token
  
  For example:
  $ curl --dump-header - \ --Cookie "iPlanetDirectoryPro=AQIC5wM…TU3OQ*" \ --request POST \ --data "client_id=myClient" \ --data "response_type=token id_token" \ --data "scope=openid profile" \ --data "state=123abc" \ --data "nonce=abc123" \ --data "decision=allow" \ --data "csrf=AQIC5wM…TU3OQ*" \ --data "redirect_uri=https://www.example.com:443/callback" \ "https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/oauth2/realms/root/realms/alpha/authorize"
  If the authorization server successfully authenticates the user, note the value of the access token appended to the redirection URI in the response.

Call the /oauth2/userinfo endpoint to inspect the custom claim values, including the access token obtained from the previous request.

For example:

$ curl --request GET --header "Authorization: Bearer az91IvnIQ-uP3Eqw5QqaXXY_DCo" \
"https://openam.example.com:8443/openam/oauth2/realms/root/realms/alpha/userinfo"
{
  "given_name":"Demo First Name",
  "family_name":"Demo Last Name",
  "name":"demo",
  "myTestName":"demo",
  "sub":"(usr!demo)",
  "subname":"demo"
}

Verify that the response contains the custom claim added by the script (myTestName in this example).

OIDC user info claims scripting API

The following properties are available to user info claims scripts.

Binding Information

claims

A map of the claims the server provides by default. For example:

{
  "sub": "248289761001",
  "updated_at": "1450368765"
}

claimLocales

An array of string values from the claims_locales parameter.

For details, refer to Claims Languages and Scripts in the OpenID Connect Core 1.0 specification.

claimObjects

The default OpenID Connect 1.0 claims provided by AM.

clientProperties

A read-only map of the following client properties. Only present if AM identified the client specified in the request.

allowedGrantTypes

List of the grant types allowed for the client. For details, refer to GrantType.

allowedResponseTypes

The list of the allowed response types for the client.

allowedScopes

The list of the allowed scopes for the client.

clientId

The client’s URI for the request locale.

customProperties

A map of any custom properties added to the client.

Lists or maps are included as sub-maps. For example, a custom property of customMap[Key1]=Value1 is returned as customMap > Key1 > Value1.

To add custom properties to a client, use the AM admin UI. Go to OAuth 2.0 > Clients > Client ID > Advanced, and update the Custom Properties field. Add custom properties as shown in these examples:

customproperty=custom-value1
customList[0]=customList-value-0
customMap[key1]=customMap-value-1

Scripts can then access the custom properties in the following way:

var customProperties = clientProperties.get("customProperties");
var property = customProperties.get("myProperty");

The map is null if AM did not successfully identify the client.

httpClient

An HTTP client for making external HTTP requests.

identity

Represents an identity that AM can access. For details, refer to AMIdentity.

logger

The logger instance for the script.

Logger names use the format scripts.OIDC_CLAIMS.<script UUID>.(<script name>).

Refer to Debug logging.

requestedClaims

A map of requested claims. This is empty unless the request includes the claims query string parameter and AM is configured to support its use.

To configure AM in the AM admin UI, go to Realms > Realm Name > Services > OAuth2 Provider > Advanced OpenID Connect. Enable Enable "claims_parameter_supported" and save your change.

For details about the claims query string parameter, refer to Requesting Claims using the "claims" Request Parameter in the OpenID Connect Core 1.0 specification.

Example:

{
  "given_name": {
    "essential": true,
    "values": [
      "Demo User",
      "D User"
    ]
  },
  "nickname": null,
  "email": {
    "essential": true
  }
}

requestedTypedClaims

A list of the requested claims objects. This is empty unless the request includes the claims query string parameter and Enable "claims_parameter_supported" is enabled in the AM admin UI.

A claim with a single value means the script should return only that value.

requestProperties

A read-only map of the following request properties.

requestUri

The URI as a string.

realm

The realm as a string.

requestParams

A map of request parameters and posted data, where each value is an array of parameters.

To mitigate the risk of reflection-type attacks, use OWASP best practices when handling these parameters. Refer to Unsafe use of Reflection.

scopes

The set of scope strings in the client request.

scriptName

The display name of the script.

session

The user’s session object. For details, refer to SSOToken.
