AttributeMapper Interface

AttributeMapper is an interface used in conjunction with an AttributeQuery class When a site receives an attribute query, this mapper obtains the SSOToken or an assertion (containing an authentication statement) from the query. The retrieved information is used to convert the attributes in the query to the corresponding Access Manager attributes. A default attribute mapper is provided if no other implementation is defined.

For more information, see AttributeQuery Class.
