# AS1Sender Class

The AS1Sender class implements an AS1 / EDI-INT client, capable of sending EDI messages over electronic mail.

## Syntax

```text
class ipworksedi.AS1Sender
```

## Remarks

The AS1Sender component is used to send EDI or other messages over SMTP/S, using the AS1 protocol specified in RFC 3335. The class is also used to retrieve and verify server responses.

A typical AS1 transaction is as follows:

(1) The sender sends an EDI document to the receiver using SMTP or SMTPS. Typically the document will be signed and encrypted (particularly if TLS/SSL is not used). A signed receipt will also be requested.

(2) The receiver decrypts the message and verifies the signature.

(3) The receiver sends a signed receipt back to the client. The signature is over the hash of an MDN, which contains a hash of the received message.

**When sending an EDI message**, the client should specify, at a minimum, [from_address](#from_address-property) and [send_to](#send_to-property), [mail_server](#mail_server-property), and [edi_data](#edi_data-property) and [edi_type](#edi_type-property). The [send](#send-method) method should then be invoked.

**To secure the EDI transmission**, the message may be signed and/or encrypted by setting the appropriate certificates. By default, the class will apply message security if the appropriate certificates are specified. To sign the data set signing_cert. To encrypt, set recipient_certs.

**TLS/SSL** will also be used if [ssl_start_mode](#ssl_start_mode-property) is set. In case your trading partner is using a self-signed certificate with their mail server it will be necessary to set ssl_accept_server_cert or trap the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event) event to accept the certificate.

The message may also be **compressed** by setting [compression_format](#compression_format-property).

**To request a receipt**, or Message Disposition Notification (MDN), simply set the [mdn_to](#mdn_to-property) property. The MDN will be returned in a separate email response. The [mdn_options](#mdn_options-property) property may be used to customize the request. By default, the class will request a signed MDN over an SHA1 hash.

**Validating AS1 MDNs**

AS1 MDNs are returned asynchronously in a separate email. Generally MDNs will not be returned immediately.

The class supports the use of the POP/S protocol for receiving e-mail. To receive an MDN, set the [mail_server](#mail_server-property), [user](#user-property), and [password](#password-property) properties, and call [connect](#connect-method). At this point you may search your mailbox using the **MailMessage** properties; when you have found the appropriate message you should invoke [read_receipt](#read_receipt-method), which will set mdn_receipt. If the receipt is indeed an MDN it will also be parsed (although not verified) and [message_id](#message_id-property) will be set. If the message is not an MDN an exception will be thrown.

You should then use the values of [from_address](#from_address-property) and [message_id](#message_id-property) to look up your trading partner's certificates, the [mdn_options](#mdn_options-property) requested, and the [original_content_mic](#original_content_mic-property) calculated when you sent the original message (you *must* store this value externally to verify signed receipts). Finally, invoke [verify_receipt](#verify_receipt-method).

```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classes) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the class is connected, the local_host property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: local_host is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

# log_directory property

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

Setting **LogDirectory** will instruct the component to log the details of each transmission to unique files in the specified directory. For each request processed, the class will log the original EDI data, the complete text of the outgoing request and the incoming response.

The class will write a file for each transmission, with extension ".log". In case of error an additional file will be written with extension ".err", and the error will be reported in both files. Raw AS1 messages created or downloaded by the class will be written with extension ".as1", and MDNs created or downloaded will be written with extension ".as1-mdn".

The filenames will be chosen automatically by the class. Each filename will be the system time, in the format YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS-MMMM, with extensions "-2", "-3", used in case files of those names already exist. After each transaction is processed [log_file](#log_file-property) will contain the name of the files just written, minus the extension ".log" or ".err".

If logs cannot be written an exception will be thrown.

# log_file property

The log file written.

## Syntax

```text
def get_log_file() -> str: ...
log_file = property(get_log_file, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

In case [log_directory](#log_directory-property) is specified two log files will be written in the specified directory and log_file will contain the path.

log_file will in fact refer to several files with appropriate extensions. A diagnostic log will be written with filename log_file + ".log", and any EDI data read will be written with filename log_file + ".dat". Raw AS1 messages and MDNs will also be written with extensions ".as1" and ".as1-mdn".

This property is read-only.

# mail_message_cc property

The value of the Cc header of the mail message.

## Syntax

To use a security key, create a new [Certificate](#Type_Certificate) object and pass cstPKCS11 as the [ssl_server_cert_store_type](#ssl_server_cert_store_type-property), the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the [ssl_server_cert_store](#ssl_server_cert_store-property), and the PIN as the [ssl_server_cert_store_password](#ssl_server_cert_store_password-property). Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the [CertMgr](#CertMgr) class by calling the [list_store_certificates](#CertMgr_m_ListStoreCertificates) method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly.

ssl_server_cert_subject = property(get_ssl_server_cert_subject, None)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=example@email.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
| O | Organization |
| OU | Organizational Unit |
| L | Locality |
| S | State |
| C | Country |
| E | Email Address |

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

# subject property

The subject of the message.

## Syntax

```text
def get_subject() -> str: ...
def set_subject(value: str) -> None: ...
subject = property(get_subject, set_subject)
```

## Default Value

"AS1 Message"

## Remarks

The human-readable subject of the outgoing message.

# user property

The username for your incoming mail server.

## Syntax

```text
def get_user() -> str: ...
def set_user(value: str) -> None: ...
user = property(get_user, set_user)
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

The username for your incoming mail server. Set this before invoking [connect](#connect-method).

# config method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

```text
def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#as1sender-config-settings) for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#as1sender-config-settings), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# connect method

Connects to the incoming mail server.

## Syntax

```text
def connect() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Connects to the incoming mail server specified by [mail_server](#mail_server-property). You must set [user](#user-property) and [password](#password-property) prior to calling connect. The connection will be maintained until you call [disconnect](#disconnect-method).

If you wish to connect in SSL you should first set the [ssl_start_mode](#ssl_start_mode-property) property. Note that it is not necessary to explicitly connect to an SMTP server for outgoing mail; a connection will be created and destroyed each time a mail is sent.

# delete_message method

Deletes the message specified by MailMessageNumber .

## Syntax

```text
def delete_message() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Requests that the [mail_server](#mail_server-property) delete the message specified by [mail_message_number](#mail_message_number-property). The message will not actually be deleted until the connection is closed.

# disconnect method

Disconnects from the incoming mail server.

## Syntax

```text
def disconnect() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Disconnects from the incoming mail server specified by [mail_server](#mail_server-property).

# process_queue method

Send the messages queued for sending.

## Syntax

```text
def process_queue(directory: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Invoking process_queue sends the messages that have been queued by [queue](#queue-method).

# query_message_size method

Returns the size in bytes of the current message.

## Syntax

```text
def query_message_size() -> int: ...
```

## Remarks

This method queries the server for the size in bytes of the message specified by [mail_message_number](#mail_message_number-property). The method returns the size (in bytes) of the message.

# query_message_uid method

Returns the unique identifier of the message as specified by the server.

## Syntax

```text
def query_message_uid() -> str: ...
```

## Remarks

This method returns the unique identifier of the message specified by [mail_message_number](#mail_message_number-property).

# queue method

Prepares and queues the message to the specified directory.

## Syntax

```text
def queue(directory: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Invoking queue will prepare and queue the AS1 message. It will be signed if signing_cert is set, encrypted if recipient_cert is set, and compressed if [compression_format](#compression_format-property) is set. A receipt will be requested if [mdn_to](#mdn_to-property) is set. The queued message can then be sent by invoking [process_queue](#process_queue-method).

# read_receipt method

Reads and parses (but does not verify) an MDN receipt.

## Syntax

```text
def read_receipt() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

read_receipt will retrieve the file specified by [mail_message_number](#mail_message_number-property) from the mail server, store it in mdn_receipt and attempt to parse it as an MDN receipt. If the file is a valid MDN receipt, the class will determine the originator of the receipt and the [message_id](#message_id-property) of the original message. The originator of the receipt (your trading partner) will be stored in [send_to](#send_to-property), the intended recipient (presumably your system) will be stored in [from_address](#from_address-property), and the original message Id will be stored in [message_id](#message_id-property).

If you are not currently connected to a mail server, the class will process the receipt specified by mdn_receipt.

You should then look up the original message and set [original_content_mic](#original_content_mic-property) to the value of [original_content_mic](#original_content_mic-property) originally computed when the message was sent (you will need to save this information externally). You should also set receipt_signer_cert based on the value of [send_to](#send_to-property) if necessary. Also, set [mdn_options](#mdn_options-property) to the value used when making the original request.

Finally, [verify_receipt](#verify_receipt-method) should be used to verify the receipt.

# reset method

Resets the state of the control.

## Syntax

```text
def reset() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

**Reset** resets the state of the class. All properties will be set to their default values.

# select_mail_message method

Selects and obtains information about the specified message.

## Syntax

```text
def select_mail_message() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This method selects the message specified by [mail_message_number](#mail_message_number-property) and retrieves information about it.

After calling this method properties such as [mail_message_headers](#mail_message_headers-property), [mail_message_date](#mail_message_date-property), [mail_message_from](#mail_message_from-property), etc. will be populated and allow you to determine if this message is an AS1 message. Additional properties are exposed via the [config](#config-method) method.

If this message is an AS1 receipt (MDN), use [read_receipt](#read_receipt-method) to read it. The mdn_receipt will then be populated with the receipt, and [send_to](#send_to-property) will be populated with the email address of the *originator*. ([from_address](#from_address-property) and [send_to](#send_to-property) correspond to the originator and recipient of the original AS1 transmission.) You may then set trading partner information and invoke [verify_receipt](#verify_receipt-method) to verify the receipt.

# send method

Prepares and sends the AS1 message.

## Syntax

```text
def send() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Invoking send will prepare and send the AS1 message. It will be signed if signing_cert is set, encrypted if recipient_cert is set, and compressed if [compression_format](#compression_format-property) is set. A receipt will be requested if [mdn_to](#mdn_to-property) is set.

You should set [mail_server](#mail_server-property) prior to sending.

# set_request_header method

Allows the user to set or add arbitrary HTTP request headers.

## Syntax

```text
def set_request_header(header_name: str, header_value: str) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

*HeaderName* should contain the header name, and *HeaderValue* should contain its value. Use this to set headers such as *To*, *Date*, etc. Note that a default value for *Date* will automatically be determined and this method may be used to override the default.

**SetRequestHeader** may be used to set any header except for the following: *AS2-To*, *AS2-From*, *AS2-Version*, *Subject*, *Message-Id*, *Disposition-Notification-To*, *Disposition-Notification-Options*, *Receipt-Delivery-Option*, *Host*, *Content-Length*.

# verify_receipt method

Verifies an MDN receipt.

## Syntax

```text
def verify_receipt() -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

**VerifyReceipt** verifies the receipt in mdn_receipt against the values of [original_content_mic](#original_content_mic-property) and [message_id](#message_id-property) and the preferences specified in [mdn_options](#mdn_options-property). The method operates similarly to post: After the method finishes, the mdn_receipt, [ReceiptSigningProtocol](#ReceiptSigningProtocol), and receipt_signer_cert properties will be populated with the appropriate values.

The method operates synchronously, and will throw an exception if any errors or warnings occur. Errors might include a failure to decrypt or authenticate the receipt, the absence of an MDN when one was requested, TCP/IP errors, or any errors reported by the server in the MDN. Warnings might include the return of an unsigned receipt when a signed receipt was requested, or other warnings reported by the server in the MDN.

If an exception is thrown the error code will correspond to the severity of the warning or error, allowing client software to determine whether or not to accept the reply. If multiple errors occur, the exception will return a special error code, and the error message will contain a line for each error's code and description; i.e. "423: Failed to authenticate sender". If the error(s) is/are not fatal processing will not be interrupted, and the relevant properties will be populated as normal.

You should first invoke [read_receipt](#read_receipt-method) when it is not known which message the receipt is in response to. This will allow you to determine the original [message_id](#message_id-property) and originator of the receipt before trying to verify it.

# on_connection_status event

Fired to indicate changes in the connection state.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderConnectionStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def connection_event() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_connection_status() -> Callable[[AS1SenderConnectionStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_connection_status.setter
def on_connection_status(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderConnectionStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event is fired when the connection state changes: for example, completion of a firewall or proxy connection or completion of a security handshake.

The *connection_event* parameter indicates the type of connection event. Values may include the following:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
|  | Firewall connection complete. |
|  | Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or S/Shell handshake complete (where applicable). |
|  | Remote host connection complete. |
|  | Remote host disconnected. |
|  | SSL or S/Shell connection broken. |
|  | Firewall host disconnected. |

 *status_code* has the error code returned by the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. *description* contains a description of this code. The value of *status_code* is equal to the value of the error.

# on_end_transfer event

Fired when the message text completes transferring.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderEndTransferEventParams(object):
# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_end_transfer() -> Callable[[AS1SenderEndTransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_end_transfer.setter
def on_end_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderEndTransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

Fired when the message text completes transferring (on either a send or receive).

# on_error event

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[AS1SenderErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.

The *error_code* parameter contains an error code, and the *description* parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#as1sender-errors) section.

# on_header event

This event is fired for every message header being retrieved.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderHeaderEventParams(object):
  @property
  def field() -> str: ...

  @property
  def value() -> str: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_header() -> Callable[[AS1SenderHeaderEventParams], None]: ...
@on_header.setter
def on_header(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderHeaderEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The *field* parameter contains the name of the header (in the same case as it is delivered). The *value* parameter contains the header contents.

If the header line being retrieved is a continuation header line, then the *field* parameter contains "" (empty string).

# on_launch_browser event

Fires before launching a browser with the authorization URL.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderLaunchBrowserEventParams(object):
  @property
  def url() -> str: ...
  @url.setter
  def url(value) -> None: ...

  @property
  def command() -> str: ...
  @command.setter
  def command(value) -> None: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_launch_browser() -> Callable[[AS1SenderLaunchBrowserEventParams], None]: ...
@on_launch_browser.setter
def on_launch_browser(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderLaunchBrowserEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

When the client_profile property is set to ocpApplication and get_authorization is called, the class will fire this event with the *command*, which will be executed by the class. The *url* parameter will be the authorization URL that the user will be directed to authenticate.

Within this event, you may override the current value of either *command* or *url* and provide your own value. If *command* is set to an empty string, the class will not attempt to launch the browser and instead you will be responsible for directing the user to the authorization URL specified by the URL parameter. If *command* is not empty, the URL will be appended to the end.

In Windows, ShellExecute is used to execute *command*, which limits the verbs available for use in *command* to:

- edit
- explore
- find
- open
- print

# on_log event

Fired with log information while processing a message.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderLogEventParams(object):
  @property
  def log_type() -> str: ...

  @property

@property
def on_log() -> Callable[[AS1SenderLogEventParams], None]: ...
@on_log.setter
def on_log(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderLogEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

This event fires once for each log message generated by the class. The verbosity is controlled by the [LogLevel](#LogLevel) setting.

Log messages available through this event correspond to log files written to [log_directory](#log_directory-property). This event provides a way to obtain log messages without relying on files on disk. This event fires regardless of the value of [log_directory](#log_directory-property) (i.e. when [log_directory](#log_directory-property) is empty the event will still fire).

The *LogMessage* event parameter holds the raw log data.

The *LogType* event parameter indicates the type of log. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| "LOG" | Information about the status of the process. |
| "ERR" | An error was encountered. |
| "DAT" | The EDI payload. |
| "REQ" | The raw request |
| "MDN" | The MDN response. |
| "DEBUG" | Debug information. |
| "DAT.INPUT" | Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when [LogDebug](#LogDebug) is True. |

| "DAT.VERIFY" | Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when [LogDebug](#LogDebug) is True. |
| "DAT.DEBUG" | Debug information when processing payload. Only applicable when [LogDebug](#LogDebug) is True. |

# on_pi_trail event

This event traces the commands sent to the mail server, and the respective replies.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderPITrailEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_pi_trail() -> Callable[[AS1SenderPITrailEventParams], None]: ...
@on_pi_trail.setter
def on_pi_trail(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderPITrailEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

The on_pi_trail event is useful for debugging purposes. It shows all of the interaction between the client and the server, line by line, except for message header and body transfers.

The *message* parameter contains the full text of the message. The *direction* parameter shows the originator of the message:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (Client) | The message originates from the client. |
| 1 (Server) | The message originates from the server. |
| 2 (Info) | The message is an informative message originating from the client software (the class code). |

# on_ssl_server_authentication event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

## Syntax

```text
class AS1SenderSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class AS1Sender:
@property
def on_ssl_server_authentication() -> Callable[[AS1SenderSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[AS1SenderSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...
```

## Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The *accept* parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

 When *accept* is False, *status* shows why the verification failed (otherwise, *status* contains the string *OK*). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the *accept* parameter to True.

# on_ssl_status event

Fired while the message text gets transferred to or from [mail_server](#mail_server-property).

# AS1Sender Config Settings

 The class accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [config](#config-method) method.

### AS1 Config Settings

**LogFilename**: The base name of the log file.If set, this will be used as for the filename of the log file.

Note that only the base name should be specified as the component will append the appropriate file extension.

**POPPort**: The POP mail port to be used, if different than MailServer.The mail port to be used for POP (or POP/S). For implicit SSL, use port 995.

**POPServer**: The POP server to be used, if different than MailServer.The mail server to be used for POP (or POP/S), in case different than **MailServer**.

**SMTPAuthMechanism**: The authentication mechanism used to connect to the SMTP server.By default, **SMTPAuthMechanism** is set to 0, which sends the AUTH command is **SMTPUser** and **SMTPPassword** are set. **SMTPAuthMechanism** can be set to 1 to use the more secure CRAM-MD5 authentication command.

**SMTPPassword**: The password used for authentication.If SMTPPassword is set to a non empty string, then when connecting to the **SMTPServer** an AUTH or CRAM-MD5 (depending on **SMTPAuthMechanism**) command is sent for user authentication.

**SMTPPort**: The SMTP mail port to be used, if different than MailServer.The mail port to be used for SMTP (or POP/S). For implicit SSL, use port 465.

**SMTPServer**: The SMTP server to be used, if different than MailServer.The mail server to be used for SMTP (or SMTP/S), in case different than **MailServer**.

**SMTPSSLStartMode**: Determines how SSL negotiation starts with the SMTP server.0 **ssl Automatic** 1 **ssl Implicit** 2 **ssl Explicit** 3 **ssl None** Default These modes have the same interpretation as defined by the property **SSLStartMode**.

**SMTPUser**: The user name used for authentication.If SMTPUser is set to a non empty string, then when connecting to the **SMTPServer** an AUTH or CRAM-MD5 (depending on **SMTPAuthMechanism**) command is sent for user authentication.

### SSL Config Settings

**LogSSLPackets**: Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.When [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal*, this configuration setting controls whether Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) packets should be logged. By default, this configuration setting is *False*, as it is useful only for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the [on_ssl_status](#on_ssl_status-event) event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Platform*.

**OpenSSLCADir**: The path to a directory containing CA certificates.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g., 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1). OpenSSL recommends the use of the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

**OpenSSLCAFile**: Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by the following sequences:

 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

 ... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

 -----END CERTIFICATE-----

 Before, between, and after the certificate text is allowed, which can be used, for example, for descriptions of the certificates. Refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

**OpenSSLCipherList**: A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

**OpenSSLPrngSeedData**: The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default, OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG, and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

**ReuseSSLSession**: Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to True, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the class is the same.

**SSLCACertFilePaths**: The paths to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.This configuration setting specifies the paths on disk to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found, the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.

The default value is as follows:

*/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem*

**SSLCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to be included when performing an SSL handshake.When [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal*, this configuration setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included with the ssl_cert property. Some servers or clients require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL authentication. The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w
F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
\r \n
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp
... Root Cert ...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**SSLCheckCRL**: Whether to check the Certificate Revocation List for the server certificate.This configuration setting specifies whether the class will check the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) specified by the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the class will first obtain the list of CRL URLs from the server certificate's CRL distribution points extension. The class will then make HTTP requests to each CRL endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the class fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the class. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.

This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.

**SSLCheckOCSP**: Whether to use OCSP to check the status of the server certificate.This configuration setting specifies whether the class will use OCSP to check the validity of the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the class will first obtain the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) URL from the server certificate's OCSP extension. The class will then locate the issuing certificate and make an HTTP request to the OCSP endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation, the class fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the class will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but it will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.

This configuration setting is supported only in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is supported only on Windows operating systems.

**SSLCipherStrength**: The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption. This minimum cipher strength is largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

NOTE: This configuration setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the [on_ssl_status](#on_ssl_status-event) event.

Use this configuration setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, [SSLCipherStrength](#SSLCipherStrength) is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the [OpenSSLCipherList](#OpenSSLCipherList) configuration setting.

**SSLClientCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL client certificate validation.This configuration setting is only applicable to server components (e.g., TCPServer) see [SSLServerCACerts](#SSLServerCACerts) for client components (e.g., TCPClient). This setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the client certificate that is presented by the client during the SSL handshake when ssl_authenticate_clients is enabled. When verifying the client's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the client's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the client's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert ...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

... Root Cert ...
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**SSLEnabledCipherSuites**: The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.This configuration setting enables the cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If [SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Platform* include the following:

```text
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256");

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols)), only the following cipher suites are supported:

- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

[SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) is used together with [SSLCipherStrength](#SSLCipherStrength).

**SSLEnabledProtocols**: Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.This configuration setting is used to enable or disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default. The default value is *4032* for client components, and *3072* for server components. To specify a combination of enabled protocol versions set this config to the binary *OR* of one or more of the following values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
| TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server) |
| TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default - Client) |
| TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default - Client) |
| SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) |
| SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) |

Note that only TLS 1.2 is enabled for server components that accept incoming connections. This adheres to industry standards to ensure a secure connection. Client components enable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and TLS 1.2 by default and will negotiate the highest mutually supported version when connecting to a server, which should be TLS 1.2 in most cases.

**SSLEnabledProtocols: Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 Notes:**

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled, the class will first try to use the platform TLS 1.3 implementation when the [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to Automatic for all editions. If the platform TLS 1.3 implementation is not available, the internal implementation will be used.

In editions that are designed to run on Windows, [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is supported only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to *1* (Platform provider), please be aware of the following notes:

- The platform provider is available only on Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 and up.
- [SSLEnabledCipherSuites](#SSLEnabledCipherSuites) and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols) includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2, these restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

**SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes: **

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) needs to be set to platform.

**SSLEnableRenegotiation**: Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.This configuration setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This configuration setting is *False* by default, but it can be set to *True* to enable the extension.

This configuration setting is applicable only when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal*.

**SSLIncludeCertChain**: Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.This configuration setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event) event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event) event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the [on_ssl_server_authentication](#on_ssl_server_authentication-event) event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

**SSLKeyLogFile**: The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.This configuration setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools, such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffic for debugging purposes. When writing to this file, the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

NOTE: This configuration setting is applicable only when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal*.

**SSLNegotiatedCipher**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.This configuration setting returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite**: Returns the negotiated cipher suite.This configuration setting returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange**: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.This configuration setting returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength**: Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.This configuration setting returns the strength of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");
```

**SSLNegotiatedVersion**: Returns the negotiated protocol version.This configuration setting returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

NOTE: For server components (e.g., TCPServer), this is a per-connection configuration setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

```csharp
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");
```

**SSLSecurityFlags**: Flags that control certificate verification.The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be ORed together to exclude multiple conditions:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0x00000001 | Ignore time validity status of certificate. |
| 0x00000002 | Ignore time validity status of CTL. |
| 0x00000004 | Ignore non-nested certificate times. |
| 0x00000010 | Allow unknown certificate authority. |
| 0x00000020 | Ignore wrong certificate usage. |
| 0x00000100 | Ignore unknown certificate revocation status. |
| 0x00000200 | Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status. |
| 0x00000400 | Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status. |
| 0x00000800 | Ignore unknown root revocation status. |
| 0x00008000 | Allow test root certificate. |
| 0x00004000 | Trust test root certificate. |
| 0x80000000 | Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN non-matching server name). |

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

**SSLServerCACerts**: A newline separated list of CA certificates to use during SSL server certificate validation.This configuration setting is only used by client components (e.g., TCPClient) see [SSLClientCACerts](#SSLClientCACerts) for server components (e.g., TCPServer). This configuration setting can be used to optionally specify one or more CA certificates to be used when connecting to the server and verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate, the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This configuration setting should be set only if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this configuration setting is a newline-separated (CR/LF) list of certificates. For instance:

```text
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
... Intermediate Cert...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w

d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```

**TLS12SignatureAlgorithms**: Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.This configuration setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal* and [SSLEnabledProtocols](#SSLEnabledProtocols) is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this configuration setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported, the class fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:

```csharp
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
```

 The default value for this configuration setting is *sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa*.

To not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this configuration setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

**TLS12SupportedGroups**: The supported groups for ECC.This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is *ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1*.

When using TLS 1.2 and [ssl_provider](#ssl_provider-property) is set to *Internal*, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

**TLS13KeyShareGroups**: The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional roundtrip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result, only some groups are included by default in this configuration setting.

NOTE: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used that is not present in this list, it will incur an additional roundtrip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases, this configuration setting does not need to be modified. This should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is *ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072*

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

- "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
- "ecdhe_x448"
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1"
- "ffdhe_2048" (default)
- "ffdhe_3072" (default)
- "ffdhe_4096"
- "ffdhe_6144"
- "ffdhe_8192"

**TLS13SignatureAlgorithms**: The allowed certificate signature algorithms.This configuration setting holds a comma-separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values include the following:

- "ed25519" (default)
- "ed448" (default)
- "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *True* to mask sensitive data. The default is *True*.

**ProcessIdleEvents**: Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

**SelectWaitMillis**: The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.If there are no events to process when do_events is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

**UseFIPSCompliantAPI**: Tells the class whether or not to use FIPS certified APIs.When set to *True*, the class will utilize the underlying operating system's certified APIs. Java editions, regardless of OS, utilize Bouncy Castle Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS), while all other Windows editions make use of Microsoft security libraries.

FIPS mode can be enabled by setting the *UseFIPSCompliantAPI* configuration setting to *True*. This is a static setting that applies to all instances of all classes of the toolkit within the process. It is recommended to enable or disable this setting once before the component has been used to establish a connection. Enabling FIPS while an instance of the component is active and connected may result in unexpected behavior.

For more details, please see the [FIPS 140-2 Compliance](https://www.nsoftware.com/kb/articles/fips.rst) article.

NOTE: This setting is applicable only on Windows.

NOTE: Enabling FIPS compliance requires a special license; please contact [sales@nsoftware.com](mailto:sales@nsoftware.com) for details.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *False*, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *True* tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 On Windows, this setting is set to *False* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *True* by default.

 To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the [OpenSSL Notes](platforms.md) section.
