Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Developer's Guide

Liberty Personal Profile Service

The Liberty Personal Profile Service is a default OpenSSO Enterprise identity service. It can be queried for identity data and its attributes can be updated.

For access to occur, the hosting provider of the Liberty Personal Profile Service needs to be registered with the Discovery Service on behalf of each identity principal. To register a service with the Discovery Service, update a resource offering for that service. For more information, see Discovery Service.

The URL to gain access to the Liberty Personal Profile Service is:


http://SERVER_HOST:SERVER_PORT/SERVER_DEPLOY_URI/Liberty/idpp

This URL is normally used by the OpenSSO Enterprise client API to access the service. For example, the OpenSSO Enterprise public Data Service Template client, com.sun.identity.liberty.ws.dst.DSTClient uses this URL to query and modify an identity's personal profile attributes stored in OpenSSO Enterprise.
