Closed as program error.
Error description
When using AAA Authentication method "Retrieve SAML Assertions Corresponding to a SAML Browser Artifact", subsequent AAA steps using a Custom Template may fail to match on the value after upgrading from 3.7 to 3.8. The output from the authentication method changed resulting in the XPath that previously matched the contents of the SAML credential to no longer match the new format.
Local fix
Use the following XPath expression in your custom XSLT to capture the value of the SAML credential: string(/container/credentials/entry[@type='saml']) This will work for both the DataPower Releases 3.7 and 3.8.
Problem summary
The output of the AAA SAML Authentication credential was modified in 3.8.1.
Problem conclusion
Two SAML entries are now added to the output of the AAA SAML Authentication credential in order to provide backwards compatibility.
Temporary fix
