Extracting information

Edit online

Different tokens might have different names under which the information of interest resides. Map the different attributes into a common name to enable application of any business logic.

Procedure

  1. When you working with different kind of token, the information may exist under many different names. A pre-defined json which contain token type and original name and universal name mapping can be provided:
    var universalNameMapJson = {
    "urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:jwt": {
        "sub": "uni_sub",
        "aud": "uni_aud",
        "exp": "uni_exp",
        "iss": "uni_iss",
        "scope": "uni_scope",
        "act": "uni_act"
    },
  "urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:saml2": {
    "subject": "uni_sub",
    "audience": "uni_aud",
    "expire": "uni_exp",
    "issuer": "uni_iss"
  }
};
  2. Put all the information with common name into a JSON. For example: 
    var actClaimsJson = JSON.parse(
    OAuthMappingExtUtils.parseSTSUUToJson(act_stsuu, actor_token_type, JSON.stringify(universalNameMapJson))
);
