Interface ClientUserToken


public interface ClientUserToken

This class extends XWSS Security Token and enables the STS Clients to use any custom tokens that can be used in WS-Trust protocol element OnBehalfOf. This element is used by the OpenSSO STS Service to allow any custom changes to the issued tokens by the STS. This is also known as End user token conversion interface (SPI) that can be implemented by any custom token implementation to convert any custom end user token to the token issued by Security Token Service. In this case, the identity or the owner of the token generated by STS, would be same as the End user token. The implementation of this interface can be configured at global Security Token Service configuration (via Admin Console) for server side and in client's AMConfig.properties for client side.
