How can i get in a proxy flow the business service endpoint?. I want to log this endpoint in my log file.
I use OSB 11.1.1.7.
Thanks
Try with $outbound/ctx:transport/ctx:uri from proxy.
This can be achieved with use of "Message Tracing" functionality. Look under "Operational Settings" tab. Make sure to set the detail level to "Full".
Unfortunately there is no OOTB functionality to access service endpoint value inside OSB pipeline. Context variable $outbound/ctx:transport/ctx:uri mentioned before is only used to override default endpoint URI. ctx:uri is never initialized on the outbound variable. This information can be found in chapter "39.4.1.2 transport" of "Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle Service Bus"(https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/admin.1111/e15867/context.htm#OSBAG326) .

I want to roll my own instance of identityserver4 as authentication instance for a service I am hosting in the cloud.
My concrete scenario is that I want to be able for customers to set up using their ADFS in a self service manner similar to how slack, expensify or namely allow this.
I know how federating works. Usually in the Startup in ConfigureServices you add the following
services.AddAuthentication()
.AddCookie("cookie")
.AddSaml2p("idp1", options => {
.....
.AddSaml2p("idp3", options => {
and so on and I can use the same of the scheme to later challenge the external ADFS. But this is only and always happening at the startup of the service. When a customer is configuring the connection to his ADFS later my service is already up and running and I don't want to restart my service to be able to configure the federation between my identityserver and the external provider.
Is there a way to configure this without restarting the service?
There's 2 options as I see it:
https://www.identityserver.com/documentation/dynamic-authentication-providers
OR - as I had to a couple of years ago before anything like the above existed - creating your own version of the authentication handler (surprisingly few changes required) to accept parameters via the properties passed to ChallengeAsync(). In the case of OIDC all I needed to override was the authority URL and client ID since it's I'm only using id_token.
In OSB Layer when the endpoint uri is changed, I need to alert the core group that the endpoint has changed and to review it. I tried SLA Alert rules but it does not have options for it. My question is, the endpoint uri should be saved somewhere in the underlying database. If so what is the schema and the table name to query it.
URI or in fact any other part of OSB artifact is not stored in relational database but rather kept in memory in it's original XML structure. It can be only accessed thru dedicated session management API. Interfaces you will need to use are part o com.bea.wli.sb.management.configuration and com.bea.wli.sb.management.query packages. Unfortunately it is not as straightforward as it sounds, in short, to extract URI information you will need to:
Create session instance(SessionManagementMBean)
Obtain ALSBConfigurationMBean instance that operates on SessionManagementMBean
Create Query object instance(BusinessServiceQuery) an run it on ALSBConfigurationMBean to get ref object to osb artifact of your interest
Invoke getServiceDefinition on your ref object to get XML service
definition
Extract URI from XML service definition with XPath
Downside of this approach is that you are basically pooling configuration each time you want to check if anything has changed.
More information including JAVA/WLST examples can be found in Oracle Fusion Middleware Java API Reference for Oracle Service Bus
There is also a good blog post describing OSB customization with WLST ALSB/OSB customization using WLST
The information about services and all its properties can be obtained via Java API. The API documentation contains sample code, so you can get it up and running quite quickly, see the Querying resources paragraph when following the given link.
We use the API to read the service (both proxy and business) configuration and for simple management.
As long as you only read the properties you do not need to handle management sessions. Once you change the values, you need to start a session and activate it once you are done -- a very similar approach to Service bus console.
Http Form adapter serves as an authentication service in my application. I have not implemented any application on the Identity Provider to get user inputs.
Therefore, on successful authentication, SP verifies the user's signature and redirects to the application. At my target Resource, I receive an open token. Is it still possible to utilize the open Token Jar to read the user attributes from OTK?
**Note: ** In Service Provider, I use open token Adapter.
Also, please let me know if there is any other possible way of getting the user attributes other than using the open token adapter/http form adapter.
Thanks.
There are numerous SP Adapters you can choose to use for your last mile integration with your application. The OpenToken Adapter is just one of them. If your application is in Java and you are using the SP OpenToken Adapter, then you would most likely use the Java OpenToken Agent implementation within your application to read the OTK (documented in the Java Integration Kit). If you look at the Add Ons list, there are actually 3 flavors of OTK Agents (.NET, Java and PHP from PingID. Ruby on Rails and Perl are available via respective Open Source repositories).
However, you are not limited to OpenToken Adapters. The Agentless Integration Kit is also very popular for SP/last-mile integration with PingFederate.
Unfortunately, the question is just too open ended for the Stackoverflow format. I would suggest talking to your Ping Identity Solution Architect who can help steer you in the right direction and ask the necessary follow-up questions on your use case.
If understand the question correctly, you desire attributes to be fulfilled that the web application can read and utilize. This starts with the SP Connection configuration. I am going to assume you are using Active Directory and already configured that data source along with the Password Credential Validator (PCV) for the HTML Form IdP Adapter. In the SP Connection you will need to extend the attribute contract to define the values to put into the SAML assertion and then use the Active Directory data source to fulfill the attributes. When the SAML assertion is received by the PingFederate SP role server, the SP Adapter maps the attribute values from the SAML assertion into the OpenToken. When your application receives the OpenToken, it can read the values.
I was looking up online how to create a Camel's CXF producer (i.e. create a CXF endpoint that would produce a request to some local/remote web service). Generally, all the examples I could find would list the following steps:
First define the cxfEndpoint attributes:
<cxf:cxfEndpoint
id="orderEndpoint"
address="http://localhost:9000/order/"
serviceClass="camelinaction.order.OrderEndpoint"/>
Then send the request to that endpoint:
...to("cxf:bean:orderEndpoint");
Hmmm. I don't understand the concept. If this is a remote web service, all I usually have is the URL of the WSDL. I can get from it the address of the service... but I don't know what the serviceClass is and I don't have it on my classpath.
So how do I define that cxfEndpoint in case I only have the URL of the WSDL?
Or is there another type of endpoint I should use in that case?
I would suggest looking into WSDL first for cxf. Below are two links that I think should help you out quite a lot and has helped me in the past as well.

On the Red Hat site you will need to start at chapter 3.
Hope this helps.
I have created a Google Apps Script doPost script that I have published as a Service, only available to myself (as described in https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guide_user_interfaces#RunDecision, section "Publishing a Script as a Service").
I have now a URL like https://sites.google.com/a/macros/[google apps domain]/exec?service=[service key]
I want to call this service from a Google App Engine GWT application, but I don't know how to manage with authentication.
If selecting the "Allow anyone to invoke this service" then "Allow anonymous access", then I can call this service from AppEngine, but in my case, I absolutely need the authentication.
Do you have any idea how to handle it ?
If you only need to call this script from server to server and both of the endpoints are in your ownership, you could use a shared secret to do so, e.g.
Apps Script:
function doPost(e) {
if(e.parameters.secret != 'mysecret') {
return ContentService.createTextOutput("Nice try!");
}
// your code here
}
and transmit it with the request. If you only share your script with "Anyone having the link" that should provide reasonable security - make sure you never log that request nor include it in an error message however ;)
