Java Policy Agents 5.10.2

Response Attribute Map

Map the value of a response attribute specified in AM to one or more HTTP headers, HTTP cookies, or request attributes, depending on the value of Response Attribute Fetch Mode.

  • Map key: The name of a response attribute returned by AM with a policy decision

  • Map value: The name of one or more HTTP headers, HTTP cookies, or request attributes

Consider the following points for response cookies:

  • If an HTTP cookie with the mapped name does not exist, the agent creates it.

  • If an HTTP cookie with the mapped name already exists and the cookie value is different from the mapped value, the agent overwrites the cookie.

  • If an HTTP cookie with the mapped name already exists and the cookie value is the same as the mapped value, the agent does nothing.

  • If the profile attribute name (key) does not exist, the agent does not create the HTTP cookie.

  • The agent does not automatically clear cookies. To prevent a build up of cookies, consider adding them to the Reset Cookie List.

Consider the following points for response headers:

  • If an HTTP header with the mapped name does not exist, the agent creates it.

  • If an HTTP header with the mapped name already exists, the agent does not overwrite it but simply appends information to the HTTP header.

  • If the profile attribute name (key) does not exist, the agent does not create the HTTP header.

  • When an HTTP header name is used in a request header, it is prefixed by HTTP_. The agent automatically changes lower case letters to upper case, and hyphens (-) to underscores (_). For example, CUSTOM-userid becomes HTTP_CUSTOM_USERID.

Format: response attribute = HEADER-NAME(S), response attribute = COOKIE-NAME(S), response attribute = REQUEST-ATTRIBUTE(S)

Default: Empty

Examples:

In the following example, the AM response attribute uid is mapped to CUSTOM-User-Name: com.sun.identity.agents.config.response.attribute.mapping[uid]=Custom-User-Name

Example: [uid]=HEADER1|HEADER2
