PingAM 8.0.0

Set Success Details node

The Set Success Details node adds additional details to the JSON response on successful authentication. You can add either or both of the following:

  • Success details: Lets you add static key:value fields to the JSON response.

  • Session properties: Lets you add key:value fields to the JSON response, where value corresponds to the value of the specified session property.

    This lets you retrieve session properties in the journey without needing additional post-authentication processing.

You can’t override the tokenId, successUrl, and realm fields returned in the JSON response by default.

Examples

Example 1: Add static content and session properties

This example uses the Set Success Details node to add the following additional details to the JSON response:

  • A static authMethod:password field.

  • A universalId session property, which returns the corresponding value from the session when the user authenticates.

Journey with a [.label]#Set Success Details# node

  • The Page node containing the Platform Username node and Platform Password node prompts for credentials.

  • The Data Store Decision node validates the username-password credentials.

  • The Increment Login Count node updates the number of successful authentications in the user profile.

  • The Set Success Details node adds the additional configured details to the JSON response upon successful authentication. This example uses the following configuration:

    Success Details

    Key: authMethod

    Value: password

    Session Properties

    Key: universalId

    Value: sun.am.UniversalIdentifier

When the user authenticates successfully using this journey, the JSON response includes the additional details you configured. For example:

{
    "tokenId": "AQIC5wM…​TU3OQ*",
    "successUrl": "/enduser/?realm=/alpha",
    "realm": "/alpha",
    "universalId": "id=bjensen,ou=user,o=alpha,ou=services,ou=am-config",
    "authMethod": "password"
}

Example 2: Add dynamic content

This example uses the Configuration Provider node to imitate the Set Success Details node. Using the Configuration Provider node lets you add dynamic content to the JSON response, such as an API response, in addition to static content and session properties.
