Description

• Connector uses OAuth2 protocol for authenticating a request for service endpoint with PingFederate acting as an OAuth Authorization Server (OAuth AS).
• Supports 'Client Credentials' and 'Resource Owner Password Credentials' grant types.

Usage

• Ping Federate credentials 'client_id:client_secret' and base url must be configured first by customer/client
• Confidential 'client_id:client_secret' should be encrypted for supporting 'Client Credentials' grant type
• Confidential 'username:password' should be encrypted for supporting 'Password' grant type.
• Default encryption algorithm will be custom-provided by Mashery but allows flexibility to use standard base64encode/base64decode.

Chaining

• Ping Federate OAuth Connector can be chained with existing processors developed and available.
• More details on how to chain two processors are provided in Chaining Processors.
