Developing a program that uses a validated SAML token in an outbound request

You might want your application to use the SAML token in an outbound request. You can configure web services to add the SAML token to an outbound request. For instructions, see Configuring a requester pipeline to use SAML tokens.

For an application to insert a SAML token in a web service request SOAP message, the token must first be validated. Optionally, the application can add attributes to the token after validating it and before invoking the web service. For more information, see Developing a program that creates or augments SAML tokens.

The SAML token is stored in the read-only container DFHSAML-OUTTOKEN.
