The OIDCWeb struct provides an easy way to add OpenID Connect-based SSO to your web application.

Syntax

cloudsso::OIDCWeb

Remarks

The OIDCWeb struct provides a simple way to authenticate users to your web application using OpenID Connect, making it easy to add SSO support to web applications. Through OpenID Connect, the identity management is performed by OpenID Providers such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, GitHub, GitLab, Okta, or others.

An application that uses an OpenID Provider for authentication purposes is referred to as a Relying Party. When a user visits a website (Relying Party), they are directed to authenticate with the chosen OpenID Provider. Once authenticated, the user will give the OpenID Provider consent to use their account information to login to the Relying Party's service. The Relying Party will then be issued an ID Token by the OpenID Provider that will then be verified to confirm the identity of the user. This removes the need to manage and secure sensitive user information like passwords. Additionally, an OpenID Provider can also provide profile information about the user, further reducing the amount of information that needs to be stored.

Setup

Typically, the Relying Party will need to register their application with the OpenID Provider. This will give the OpenID Provider knowledge about the Relying Party. The exact information needed depends on the OpenID Provider that is being used, but typically this will include the redirect_uri to which users will be returned after authentication has been completed. Once registered, the OpenID Provider will also provide the Relying Party with some information. Typically the following values will be provided by the OpenID Provider:

  • Client Id (Required)
  • Client Secret (Optional)
  • Discovery Document URL (Recommended)

Once the application has been registered, the Relying Party can begin authenticating users.

Discovery

To start, a Relying Party will need to get information about the OpenID Provider they are connecting to. The OIDC standard uses discovery documents to provide information about an OpenID Provider to a Relying Party. The OpenID Provider should host their discovery document at the domain of the issuer with /.well-known/openid-configuration concatenated at the end. For example, if the issuer is https://example.com, the discovery document URL would be:

https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

This document stores important information that is required to correctly make requests and validate responses from an OpenID Provider.

Usage: Getting the Discovery Document

The struct simplifies requesting and parsing the discovery document. The request_discovery_doc method will make a request to the specified discovery document URL. It will retrieve the discovery document and parse the commonly used information from it, setting the properties in the discovery_doc_details property. For example:

oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); string issuer = oidc.DiscoveryDocDetails.Issuer;

This discovery document does change from time to time, but typically it can be cached to reduce the number of requests being made by the Relying Party. To save the discovery document for later, the discovery_doc_details_content property can be queried to get the raw JSON document. When the discovery document needs to be reloaded, the load_discovery_doc method can be used to reload the document. For example:

oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); string raw_document = oidc.DiscoveryDocDetails.Content; //Save raw_document for later oidc.LoadDiscoveryDoc(raw_document);

The following properties and methods handle requesting, loading, or parsing discovery documents:

Signing Certificates

The discovery document also provides a URI for the JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) that will be used to verify ID Tokens (see below). Each JSON Web Key Set contains one or more public certificates (keys) that correspond to a private key that can be used when an OpenID provider signs an ID Token. These keys are often rotated periodically but can generally be cached to reduce the amount of requests being made by the Relying Party.

Usage: Requesting and Reloading Signing Certificates

The request_signer_certs method can be used to request the JWKS directly from the JWKS URI. This method will set the signer_jwks property which is automatically parsed to fill the signer_certs properties. If the signer_certs properties is empty and the struct needs to verify the ID Token, the struct will automatically make this request.

To reduce the number of requests made by the Relying Party, the load_signer_jwks method can be used to parse the signer_jwks again. This allows the Relying Party to cache the signer_jwks property and reuse it later, reducing the amount of times the JWKS is requested from the OpenID Provider. oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); oidc.RequestSignerCerts(); string raw_jwks = oidc.SignerJWKS; //Save or Cache for later. //Continue on with operations that need to verify an ID Token. //Sometime later with a new instance. oidc.SignerJWKS = raw_jwks; oidc.LoadSignerJWKS(); //Continue on with new operations that need to verify an ID Token.

Authentication

The exact flow that a Relying Party goes through to authenticate a user depends on how the Relying Party configures their requests. These flows are broken up into different Grant Types with the most common being the Authorization Code grant type.

For a Relying Party using the Authorization Code grant type, the user must be redirected to the OpenID Provider's Authorization URL. The OpenID Provider will first ask the user to authenticate themselves. Once the user is authenticated, the OpenID Provider will then request authorization from the user to allow the Relying Party to access specific information about their account. This information will then be used to authenticate the user to the Relying Party. Once authorization has been provided, the user will be redirected back to the Relying Party with an authorization code.

With the authorization code, the Relying Party can now make a request to the token URL. The token server requires the authorization_code, client_id, and optional client_secret to confirm that the Relying Party has obtained authorization from the authorization server. The token server will then return an access_token,id_token, and optional refresh_token. To finish authenticating the user to the web application, the Relying Party will then validate the ID Token (see below).

Getting Authorization

To get authorization from an OpenID Provider, the user will need to be directed to the authorization server using an Authorization URL. There, the user will be asked to login and give authorization for (or consent to) the OpenID provider giving access to the specified information within the scope set by the Relying Party.

Usage: Getting the Authorization URL

The following example will assume that the Relying Party is using the ogtAuthorizationCode grant_type. This grant type sets the ResponseType to code, instructing the OpenID Provider to send the authorization code once authorization has been completed. First, the OIDCWeb struct needs to be configured with the information about the OpenID Provider (see Discovery above) and the specific information that has been provided or configured about the Relying Party. Once the struct is configured, the get_authorization_url method can be used to get the URL to which the user should be directed in order to complete the authorization process. //OpenID Provider oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); //Relying Party oidc.GrantType = ogtAuthorizationCode; oidc.ClientId = "Relying Party ID"; oidc.ReturnURL = "https://relying_party.com/"; oidc.AuthorizationScope = "openid profile email"; string authorization_url = oidc.GetAuthorizationURL(); //Direct the user to the URL...

Authorization Response

Once the authorization process has been completed, the OpenID Provider will redirect the user back to the Relying Party. Depending on the response_type set by the Relying Party, the redirect may contain any combination of an ID Token, an access token, or an authorization code. Once the user has been redirected back to the Relying Party, the request must be parsed to obtain the information from the OpenID Provider.

Parse vs. Process

The parse_oidc_response and process_oidc_response methods are used to handle HTTP requests that contain an OIDC response from an OpenID Provider. Generally, unless additional considerations or control are needed, the process_oidc_response method should be used. process_oidc_response will parse the incoming response from the OpenID Provider and make any additional requests necessary to obtain the access tokens and ID Tokens, as well as perform any necessary validation. For example, if an authorization code is found in the request, it will automatically make a request to the token server and handle/validate the response.

The parse_oidc_response method will only parse the information from the request. If an ID Token is found in the request, it will be validated. No further actions are performed.

Usage: Handling a redirect from an OpenID Provider

The OIDCWeb struct provides the parse_oidc_response and process_oidc_response methods to make it simple to get the required information from a redirect.

If the current HTTP context is unavailable, for instance when the struct is not used directly within a web application, the HTTP headers and body that contain the OIDC response can be supplied by setting the oidc_response_headers and oidc_response_body properties. Additionally, if working within a framework that makes it difficult to get the raw HTTP headers and body, the AuthorizationCode configuration setting can also be set to provide the authorization code directory to the struct.

The rest of the examples in this section will assume that the parse_oidc_response method is being used to better break down each step that is done by the struct. See the process_oidc_response method for more information.

Getting Tokens

Once the Relying Party has an authorization code, the code can be used to obtain an ID Token and access token from the token server. Like when building the Authorization URL, the struct will need to be configured again. Along with the other information, this step sometimes requires that a client secret be provided if it can be stored securely.

When request_tokens is called, a request is made to the token server. The token server authenticates the requester (the Relying Party) using the information provided in the request. Then, the token server will return an access token, an ID Token, and an optional refresh token. The Relying Party then needs to verify the ID Token (see below).

Refresh Tokens

Refresh tokens allow Relying Parties to skip obtaining authorization again for users that have already provided it once. How refresh tokens work depends on the OpenID Provider, but when the refresh_token property is set before calling request_tokens, the request will be made without the authorization code and the refresh_token will be used instead.

Usage: Request Tokens

The request_tokens method is used in the following example to make a request to the token server after parse_oidc_response has been called. //Parse OIDC Response oidc.ParseOIDCResponse(); //Get OpenID Provider Settings oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); //Relying Party Settings oidc.GrantType = ogtAuthorizationCode; oidc.ClientId = "Relying Party ID"; oidc.ClientSecret = "Relying Party Secret Value"; oidc.ReturnURL = "https://relying_party.com/"; oidc.AuthorizationScope = "openid profile email"; try { oidc.RequestTokens(); } catch (OIDCException e) { //Error handling if there is an issue with the response. } string access_token = oidc.AccessToken; string id_token = oidc.IdTokenInfo.IdTokenContent; string refresh_token = oidc.RefreshToken;

Verifying ID Tokens

When a Relying Party receives an ID Token, it can verify the token to confirm the identity of the user that it represents. When the struct receives an ID Token after calling parse_oidc_response, process_oidc_response, or request_tokens, it will automatically validate the ID Token.

The validation process checks the different JWT claims in the ID Token along with the signature using one of the keys from the JWKS provided by the OpenID Provider (see Signing Certificates). The following claims are used to validate the ID Token:

issThe issuer claim, checked that it matches the issuer provided in the discovery document.
audThe audience claim, checked that it matches the client_id for the Relying Party.
expThe expiration claim, checked that the current time is before the specified value.
iatThe "issued at" claim, checked that it is present and not set to 1-1-1970 (Unix Epoch).
nbfThe "not before" claim, checked that the current time is after the specified value.

Usage: Validate and Parse an ID Token

In a case where an ID Token is provided directly to the struct, the validate_id_token method can be used to validate it, and the parse_id_token method can be used to parse it. The following example will set up the struct with the information needed to validate and parse the ID Token.

//OpenID Provider oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); oidc.RequestSignerCerts(); //Relying Party oidc.ClientId = "Relying Party ID"; oidc.IdTokenInfo.IdTokenContent = "ID_TOKEN"; try { oidc.ValidateIdToken(); } catch (Exception e) { //If there is any validation issues. } //Parse the validated ID Token. oidc.ParseIdToken(); string issuer = oidc.IdTokenInfo.Issuer;

User Information

OpenID Providers give information about users through claims. These claims can be found in an ID Token or by calling the UserInfo endpoint to request the information directly.

When commonly used claims are parsed from an ID Token or the response from the UserInfo endpoint, the struct will set the properties in the user_details property with the corresponding information. If there is a claim that is not found in the user_details property, the get_id_token_claim and the get_user_info_claim methods can be used to search for specific claims.

Usage: Request UserInfo

To make a request to the UserInfo endpoint, the struct will need to have the access_token property set. Additionally, the discovery document can be used to get the UserInfo endpoint. The following code example assumes that the access_token has been set to a cached token from the current user session. oidc.RequestDiscoveryDoc("https://example.com/.well-known/openid-configuration"); oidc.AccessToken = "ACCESS_TOKEN"; oidc.RequestUserInfo(); string email = oidc.UserDetails.Email; string custom_claim = oidc.GetUserInfoClaim("/json/custom_claim");

Object Lifetime

The new() method returns a mutable reference to a struct instance. The object itself is kept in the global list maintained by CloudSSO. Due to this, the OIDCWeb struct cannot be disposed of automatically. Please, call the dispose(&mut self) method of OIDCWeb when you have finished using the instance.

access_token property (OIDCWeb Struct)

The access token received from an OpenID provider.

Syntax

fn access_token(&self ) -> Result<String, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_access_token(&self, value : &str) -> Option<CloudSSOError> fn set_access_token_ref(&self, value : &String) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property will be populated with an access token that was received from an OpenID provider. When set, the AccessTokenExp configuration setting will also be set with the expiration date of the access token. The access token allows for requests to be made to the discovery_doc_details_user_info_url to retrieve information about the authenticated user. Additionally, depending on the OpenID provider, it may be used to access other APIs that are supported by the OpenID provider depending on how authorization_scope was set when calling get_authorization_url.

Each access_token is specific to the user that authorized the OpenID provider to provide it to your application. An access_token cannot be shared between multiple users.

When an OpenID provider provides an access token depends on the ResponseType that was set when calling get_authorization_url. Typically, the ResponseType configuration setting is set when selecting a grant_type which is set to ogtAuthorizationCode by default. When ResponseType contains code (ogtAuthorizationCode and ogtHybrid), the access_token is provided by the discovery_doc_details_token_url. When ResponseType contains token (ogtAuthorizationCode and ogtHybrid), the access_token is provided by the discovery_doc_details_authorization_url.

Default Value

"openid"

Remarks

This property specifies the authorization scopes sent in the authorization request. The value specified here must be a space-separated list of scopes. For instance, openid profile email. The openid scope must always be present. The default value is openid.

After calling process_oidc_response or parse_oidc_response, if the authorization server returned the scope parameter, this property will be updated to match.

Along with OpenID Connect scopes, some OpenID providers also support other OAuth 2.0 scopes for various APIs that are also hosted by the OpenID provider. These can often also be added alongside the OpenID scopes. For example, openid profile email offline_access Mail.ReadWrite would be an example of a valid authorization_scope when using Microsoft Entra ID as an OpenID provider.

follow_redirects property (OIDCWeb Struct)

Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.

Syntax

fn follow_redirects(&self ) -> Result<i32, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_follow_redirects(&self, value : i32) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Possible Values

0   // Never
1 // Always
2 // SameScheme

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the struct returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to frAlways (1), the new url for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to frSameScheme (2), the new url is retrieved automatically only if the url_scheme is the same; otherwise, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: Following the HTTP specification, unless this property is set to frAlways (1), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, user and password are also reset to empty. If, however, this property is set to frAlways (1), the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A on_redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the on_redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is frNever (0). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the struct fails with an error instead.

Data Type

i32

grant_type property (OIDCWeb Struct)

The grant type defining the authentication flow.

Syntax

fn grant_type(&self ) -> Result<i32, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_grant_type(&self, value : i32) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Possible Values

0   // AuthorizationCode
1 // Implicit
2 // Hybrid

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property defines the grant type used when performing authentication. The value specified here controls the authentication flow.

Possible values for grant_type are:

  • 0 (Authorization Code - Default)
  • 1 (Implicit)
  • 2 (Hybrid)

When handled by the struct using the parse_oidc_response and process_oidc_response methods, each grant type acts in the following manner by default.

When using 0 (Authorization Code Flow - Default), the AuthorizationCode configuration setting is set by the authorization server. When using process_oidc_response or calling the request_tokens method after parsing, the struct will make a request to the token server and return the access_token and id_token_info properties. If provided, this grant type also supports the refresh_token property.

When using 1 (Implicit Flow), the access_token and id_token_info properties are set by the authorization server. This is only recommended for implementations that are in-browser, as this potentially exposes the tokens to the end-user and user agent itself.

When using 2 (Hybrid Flow), by default the AuthorizationCode configuration setting is set by the authorization server along with the id_token_info property (see Additional Notes). When using process_oidc_response or calling the request_tokens method after parsing, the struct will make a request to the token server and set the access_token property and the id_token_info property if provided again. If provided, this grant type also supports the refresh_token property.

Additional Notes

The response_type request parameter is automatically set based on the value specified here. In some cases, multiple values are acceptable and a default value is chosen automatically. To explicitly specify a response_type value for the chosen grant type, set ResponseType after setting this property.

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property is set by the struct when it receives a refresh token after the process_oidc_response or request_tokens methods make a request to an OpenID provider's token server.

Usage:

In cases where a user's session may last longer than the actual expiration period (see AccessTokenExp) for the user's access_token, the refresh_token can be used to "refresh" the session. "Refreshing" the session allows the application to get a new access token without needing to have the user re-authorize the application again. To have the struct use a refresh_token, first the application will need to save the refresh token in a secure location. Refresh tokens are specific to the user, meaning each user will need to have their own refresh_token saved. Once the application needs a new access_token, it will just set this property before calling the request_tokens method.

Some OpenID providers will also return a newly issued ID Token when using a refresh_token to get a new access_token. Additionally, some OpenID providers will either provide a new refresh_token or reset the expiration date on the refresh_token that was used. See the OpenID provider's documentation for more specifics.

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property specifies the URL that is used by the authorization server to redirect the user after the user has finished the authorization process with the authorization server. This property corresponds to the redirect_uri query string parameter when get_authorization_url creates the authorization URL.

Typically, this is set to the part of the web server that is responsible for processing incoming HTTP requests containing OIDC responses using the process_oidc_response or parse_oidc_response methods.

18 (cstJWKFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a JWK (JSON Web Key).
19 (cstJWKBlob)The certificate store is a string that contains a JWK (JSON Web Key).
21 (cstBCFKSFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store).

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

22 (cstBCFKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the signer_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the signer_cert_store, and the PIN as the signer_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the signer_cert_store and set signer_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

19 (cstJWKBlob)The certificate store is a string that contains a JWK (JSON Web Key).
21 (cstBCFKSFile)The certificate store is the name of a file that contains a BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store).

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

22 (cstBCFKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the ssl_accept_server_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the ssl_accept_server_cert_store, and the PIN as the ssl_accept_server_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_accept_server_cert_store and set ssl_accept_server_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the ssl_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the ssl_cert_store, and the PIN as the ssl_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_cert_store and set ssl_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

0 (cstUser - default)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a certificate store owned by the current user.

NOTE: This store type is not available in Java.

1 (cstMachine)For Windows, this specifies that the certificate store is a machine store.

NOTE: This store type is not available in Java.

2 (cstPFXFile)The certificate store is the name of a PFX (PKCS#12) file containing certificates.
3 (cstPFXBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in PFX (PKCS#12) format.
4 (cstJKSFile)The certificate store is the name of a Java Key Store (JKS) file containing certificates.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java.

5 (cstJKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in Java Key Store (JKS) format.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java.

6 (cstPEMKeyFile)The certificate store is the name of a PEM-encoded file that contains a private key and an optional certificate.
7 (cstPEMKeyBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) that contains a private key and an optional certificate.

NOTE: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, create a new Certificate object and pass cstPKCS11 as the ssl_server_cert_store_type, the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL as the ssl_server_cert_store, and the PIN as the ssl_server_cert_store_password.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (without CertMgr): sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll", "123456", // PIN "CN=cert_subject"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Alternatively, collect the necessary data using the CertMgr struct by calling the list_store_certificates method after setting the corresponding properties accordingly. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate obtained with this approach, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_server_cert_store and set ssl_server_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key (with CertMgr): certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; // PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

When ssl_server_cert_encoded is set, a search is initiated in the current ssl_server_cert_store for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, ssl_server_cert_subject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, ssl_server_cert_subject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only.

Data Type

Vec

state property (OIDCWeb Struct)

An opaque value used to maintain state between the request and response.

Syntax

fn state(&self ) -> Result<String, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_state(&self, value : &str) -> Option<CloudSSOError> fn set_state_ref(&self, value : &String) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property optionally holds a string value which will be returned by the authorization server with the response.

Any value may be specified here and it will be returned exactly as it was sent. This can be used to maintain state within the application, and also may be used for security purposes (for instance to prevent Cross-Site Request Forgery). The contents of this property are treated as an opaque value.

Data Type

String

timeout property (OIDCWeb Struct)

The timeout for the struct.

Syntax

fn timeout(&self ) -> Result<i32, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_timeout(&self, value : i32) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If timeout is set to a positive value, the struct will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The struct will use do_events to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

i32

use_nonce property (OIDCWeb Struct)

Whether the Nonce parameter is added.

Syntax

fn use_nonce(&self ) -> Result<bool, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_use_nonce(&self, value : bool) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Default Value

false

Remarks

If this property is set to true, the nonce parameter will be added to the OIDC authorization request when get_authorization_url is called. In OpenID Connect, the nonce parameter is provided during the authorization request. Then, when the OpenID Provider issues an ID Token, they will include the nonce claim with the same value (similar to state).

If the Nonce configuration setting is not set before calling get_authorization_url the struct will generate a new one and set the Nonce setting. The same nonce value will need to be supplied to the struct before calling the process_oidc_response or validate_id_token methods. When the struct validates an ID Token, it will check the Nonce configuration setting if a nonce claim is found. By default, the nonce claim is not required but setting this property to true will require the nonce claim to be present and match the Nonce configuration setting.

Data Type

bool

use_pkce property (OIDCWeb Struct)

Whether Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) should be used.

Syntax

fn use_pkce(&self ) -> Result<bool, CloudSSOError> 
fn set_use_pkce(&self, value : bool) -> Option<CloudSSOError>

Default Value

false

Remarks

If this property is specified, the struct will use Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) as defined by RFC 7636 when get_authorization_url is called. This applies when grant_type is set to the Authorization Code or Hybrid grant types. Typically, a new instance of the struct will be used to process the OIDC response from the authorization server than the one used to create the request to the authorization server. To verify the OIDC response from the authorization server, the PKCEVerifier will need to be saved in a safe location. Then before handling the response from the authorization server, the PKCEVerifier should be set to the saved value.

config is a generic method available in every struct. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the struct.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, 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, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

do_events method (OIDCWeb Struct)

This method processes events from the internal message queue.

Syntax

fn do_events(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

When do_events is called, the struct processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.

get_authorization_url method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Builds the URL for an OpenID provider's authorization server.

Syntax

fn get_authorization_url(&self) ->  Result<String, CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method will build the authorization URL that should be used to direct the user to the OpenID provider's authorization server. Before calling this method, the struct will need to be configured so that it has the needed information. The discovery document for the OpenID provider is used to provide the necessary information about the authorization server like the discovery_doc_details_authorization_url. If needed, the ServerAuthURL configuration setting can be used to override or manually provide the URL of the authorization server. The rest of the information needed can be provided through the following properties or configuration settings.

get_discovery_metadata method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Gets a specific metadata value from the discovery document.

Syntax

fn get_discovery_metadata(&self, metadata_name : &str) ->  Result<String, CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method will search the current discovery document for a specific metadata value. This can take the metadata name or the JSON path. This works on documents that have been provided by both the load_discovery_doc and request_discovery_doc methods. For example, to get the authorization endpoint metadata field from the document, both of the following are valid:

Metadata Name oidc.GetDiscoveryMetadata("authorization_endpoint");

JSON Path oidc.GetDiscoveryMetadata("/json/authorization_endpoint");

get_id_token_claim method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Gets a specific claim from the ID Token.

Syntax

fn get_id_token_claim(&self, claim_name : &str) ->  Result<String, CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method will search the current ID Token for a specific claim. This can take the claim name (defined by the specification) or a JSON path. For example, to get the audience claim from the ID Token, both of the following are valid:

Claim Name oidc.GetIdTokenClaim("aud");

JSON Path oidc.GetIdTokenClaim("/json/aud");

get_query_param method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Gets a specific claim from the current OIDC response.

Syntax

fn get_query_param(&self, param_name : &str) ->  Result<String, CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method searches the current context (after process_oidc_response or parse_oidc_response is called) or the oidc_response_headers property for a specific query parameter and returns the value. For example, if the response that was recently processed by the struct contains the state parameter, then the following code would return the value of the state returned from the authorization server.

oidc.ProcessOIDCResponse(); string state = oidc.GetQueryParam("state");

get_user_info_claim method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Gets a specific claim from the UserInfo response.

Syntax

fn get_user_info_claim(&self, claim_name : &str) ->  Result<String, CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method will search the most recent response from the request_user_info method for a specific claim. This can take the claim name (defined by the specification) or a JSON path. For example, to get the audience claim from the response, both of the following are valid:

Claim Name oidc.GetUserInfoClaim("aud");

JSON Path oidc.GetUserInfoClaim("/json/aud");

interrupt method (OIDCWeb Struct)

This method interrupts the current method.

Syntax

fn interrupt(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

If there is no method in progress, interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.

load_discovery_doc method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Loads in a raw discovery document.

Syntax

fn load_discovery_doc(&self, document_data : &str) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method loads a discovery document directly from the documentData parameter. Typically, this can be used to reload a discovery document that has been previously retrieved by the request_discovery_doc method.

load_signer_jwks method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Loads in the signer JWKS directly from a raw JWKS blob.

Syntax

fn load_signer_jwks(&self, jwks_data : &str) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method loads the JSON Web Keys Set (JWKS) provided through the jwksData parameter. Calling this method will set the signer_jwks property and populate the signer_certs properties without making a request to the discovery_doc_details_signer_cert_url endpoint. Typically, this will be used to reload a JWKS that we previously requested by the request_signer_certs method.

parse_id_token method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Parses an ID Token.

Syntax

fn parse_id_token(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method parses the current ID Token. If the method is able to successfully parse the ID Token, it will populate the id_token_info and user_details properties. Any uncommon or custom claims can be retrieved by calling the get_id_token_claim method. The ID Token can be populated directly by setting the id_token_content property or by calling the parse_oidc_response, process_oidc_response, or request_tokens methods. Typically, the struct will automatically validate and parse an ID Token if it is found. The exception is if the parse_oidc_response method is called which will only set the id_token_content property.

See validate_id_token for information on validating an ID Token.

parse_oidc_response method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Parses the current OIDC response without additional processing.

Syntax

fn parse_oidc_response(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method parses the OIDC response from the current HTTP request and, if applicable, parses the ID Token, authorization code, or error information from it, populating the id_token_content, AuthorizationCode, and authz_response_code properties respectively. Unlike the process_oidc_response method, this method will not do any additional processing. Typically, this method is used with others like request_signer_certs, validate_id_token, parse_id_token, and request_tokens.

The HTTP request is taken directly from the oidc_response_headers and oidc_response_body properties if set; otherwise, it will try to read the HTTP context. If this method is able to parse the HTTP request and headers from the HTTP Context, it will also set the oidc_response_headers and oidc_response_body properties.

process_oidc_response method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Processes the current OIDC response.

Syntax

fn process_oidc_response(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method parses the OIDC response out of the current HTTP request and processes the results. Depending on the grant_type and ResponseType settings when the request was created, the processing flow will change. Generally, this method is equivalent to calling the following methods:

If an ID Token is returned from both the initial OIDC response from the authorization server and from the token server, both ID Tokens will be validated, but the ID Token from the token server will be used. The HTTP request is taken directly from the oidc_response_headers and oidc_response_body properties if set. The AuthorizationCode configuration setting and id_token_content properties can also be set if the parameters were provided to the application directly. Otherwise, it will try to read the environment's HTTP context if possible.

request_discovery_doc method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Requests the OpenID Discovery Document.

Syntax

fn request_discovery_doc(&self, url : &str) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method gets the OpenID Connect Discovery Document specified by the URL parameter and parses the response. The discovery document contains details about the OpenID Provider configuration including endpoint URLs, supported claims and response types, and more.

The discovery document URL is typically published by an OpenID Provider (OP) and must be known before calling this method. The format of the URL is standardized and typically takes the form:

https://www.youropenidserver.com/.well-known/openid-configuration

Call request_discovery_doc before calling get_authorization_url to populate the struct properties with information required to request authorization. The retrieved information includes endpoint URLs as well as the OpenID public certificates used to verify the signature on the ID Token. After calling this method, the discovery_doc_details property is populated. The discovery_doc_details_content property may be stored and reloaded using the load_discovery_doc method to avoid calling request_discovery_doc on subsequent authorization requests.

To access values not automatically parsed by the struct, the get_discovery_metadata method can be used to query for a specific metadata entry.

request_signer_certs method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Requests the signing certificates from the OpenID provider.

Syntax

fn request_signer_certs(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method makes a request to the discovery_doc_details_signer_cert_url to get the current signer certificates for the OpenID provider. The OpenID provider will return a JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) that represents the set of signing certificates that might be used when signing ID Tokens. The struct will automatically populate the signer_certs properties with the signer certificates parsed from the JWKS. Additionally, this method will set the signer_jwks property with the returned JWKS. The signer_jwks property can be saved for later and used with the load_signer_jwks method to avoid needing to use this method for subsequent requests.

request_tokens method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Requests new tokens from the token server.

Syntax

fn request_tokens(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method makes a request to the token server to exchange an AuthorizationCode or refresh_token for a set of tokens. The specific tokens returned depends on the grant type and OpenID provider, but they can be any combination of an access_token, ID Token (id_token_info), and refresh_token.

If an ID Token is returned, the struct will automatically attempt to verify it using the values specified by the discovery_doc_details, client_id, and signer_certs properties. If verification is successful, it will then attempt to parse the ID Token. See validate_id_token and parse_id_token for more information.

The struct will make the request to the discovery_doc_details_token_url property or the ServerTokenURL configuration setting if either has been set.

request_user_info method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Requests the information of a user.

Syntax

fn request_user_info(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method makes a request to get a specific user's info based on the current access_token. The request is made to the UserInfo endpoint which is defined by the discovery_doc_details_user_info_url property when parsed from a discovery document. The URL can also be provided directly to the struct by setting the ServerUserInfoURL configuration setting.

When a valid response is returned from the UserInfo endpoint, the struct will populate the properties in the user_details property. For uncommon or custom claims, the get_user_info_claim method can be used to get claims not covered by the user_details property.

reset method (OIDCWeb Struct)

This method will reset the struct.

Syntax

fn reset(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method will reset the struct's properties to their default values.

validate_id_token method (OIDCWeb Struct)

Validates an ID Token.

Syntax

fn validate_id_token(&self) -> Result<(), CloudSSOError>

Remarks

This method validates the current ID Token. The ID Token can be populated directly by setting the id_token_content property or by calling the parse_oidc_response, process_oidc_response, or request_tokens methods. Typically, the struct will automatically validate and parse an ID Token if it is found. The exception is if the parse_oidc_response method is called which will only set the id_token_content property.

The method will first check the signature of the ID Token using the signer_certs properties which contains the corresponding public certificates of the certificates used to sign the original ID Token. If the signer_certs properties is not populated, then a request will be made to the discovery_doc_details_signer_cert_url property or the ServerSignerCertURL configuration setting if set. This is equivalent to calling the request_signer_certs method.

Then, the struct will validate that the id_token_issuer property matches what is expected in the discovery_doc_details_issuer property. Next, the id_token_audiences will be checked to ensure that it matches the client_id property. The ExpectedIssuer and ExpectedAudience configuration settings can be used to override the typical expected values. The last check is to ensure that the id_token_issued_time and id_token_exp_time are valid based on the current time. Additionally, if the nbf (Not Before) claim is present, that will also be verified.

If validation fails, the struct will throw an exception with the matching error code. If certain steps in the verification process should be skipped, the IdTokenValidationFlags configuration setting can be used.

on_error event (OIDCWeb Struct)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

// OIDCWebErrorEventArgs carries the OIDCWeb Error event's parameters.
pub struct OIDCWebErrorEventArgs {
  fn error_code(&self) -> i32
  fn description(&self) -> &String
}

// OIDCWebErrorEvent defines the signature of the OIDCWeb Error event's handler function.
pub trait OIDCWebErrorEvent {
  fn on_error(&self, sender : OIDCWeb, e : &mut OIDCWebErrorEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> OIDCWeb<'a> {
  pub fn on_error(&self) -> &'a dyn OIDCWebErrorEvent;
  pub fn set_on_error(&mut self, value : &'a dyn OIDCWebErrorEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the struct 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 section.

on_log event (OIDCWeb Struct)

Fired once for each log message.

Syntax

// OIDCWebLogEventArgs carries the OIDCWeb Log event's parameters.
pub struct OIDCWebLogEventArgs {
  fn log_level(&self) -> i32
  fn message(&self) -> &String
  fn log_type(&self) -> &String
}

// OIDCWebLogEvent defines the signature of the OIDCWeb Log event's handler function.
pub trait OIDCWebLogEvent {
  fn on_log(&self, sender : OIDCWeb, e : &mut OIDCWebLogEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> OIDCWeb<'a> {
  pub fn on_log(&self) -> &'a dyn OIDCWebLogEvent;
  pub fn set_on_log(&mut self, value : &'a dyn OIDCWebLogEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

This event is fired once for each log message generated by the struct. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.

log_level indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:

0 (None) No events are logged.
1 (Info - default) Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose) Detailed data are logged.
3 (Debug) Debug data are logged.

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

message is the log entry.

log_type identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:

  • "Info"
  • "RequestHeaders"
  • "ResponseHeaders"
  • "RequestBody"
  • "ResponseBody"
  • "ProxyRequest"
  • "ProxyResponse"
  • "FirewallRequest"
  • "FirewallResponse"

on_redirect event (OIDCWeb Struct)

Fired when a redirection is received from the server.

Syntax

// OIDCWebRedirectEventArgs carries the OIDCWeb Redirect event's parameters.
pub struct OIDCWebRedirectEventArgs {
  fn location(&self) -> &String
  fn accept(&self) -> bool
  fn set_accept(&self, value : bool)
}

// OIDCWebRedirectEvent defines the signature of the OIDCWeb Redirect event's handler function.
pub trait OIDCWebRedirectEvent {
  fn on_redirect(&self, sender : OIDCWeb, e : &mut OIDCWebRedirectEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> OIDCWeb<'a> {
  pub fn on_redirect(&self) -> &'a dyn OIDCWebRedirectEvent;
  pub fn set_on_redirect(&mut self, value : &'a dyn OIDCWebRedirectEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

This event is fired in cases in which the client can decide whether or not to continue with the redirection process. The accept parameter is always True by default, but if you do not want to follow the redirection, accept may be set to False, in which case the struct fails with an error. location is the location to which the client is being redirected. Further control over redirection is provided in the follow_redirects property.

on_ssl_server_authentication event (OIDCWeb Struct)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

// OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs carries the OIDCWeb SSLServerAuthentication event's parameters.
pub struct OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs {
  fn cert_encoded(&self) -> &[u8]
  fn cert_subject(&self) -> &String
  fn cert_issuer(&self) -> &String
  fn status(&self) -> &String
  fn accept(&self) -> bool
  fn set_accept(&self, value : bool)
}

// OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEvent defines the signature of the OIDCWeb SSLServerAuthentication event's handler function.
pub trait OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEvent {
  fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self, sender : OIDCWeb, e : &mut OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> OIDCWeb<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_server_authentication(&self) -> &'a dyn OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_server_authentication(&mut self, value : &'a dyn OIDCWebSSLServerAuthenticationEvent);
  ...
}

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 (OIDCWeb Struct)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

// OIDCWebSSLStatusEventArgs carries the OIDCWeb SSLStatus event's parameters.
pub struct OIDCWebSSLStatusEventArgs {
  fn message(&self) -> &String
}

// OIDCWebSSLStatusEvent defines the signature of the OIDCWeb SSLStatus event's handler function.
pub trait OIDCWebSSLStatusEvent {
  fn on_ssl_status(&self, sender : OIDCWeb, e : &mut OIDCWebSSLStatusEventArgs);
}

impl <'a> OIDCWeb<'a> {
  pub fn on_ssl_status(&self) -> &'a dyn OIDCWebSSLStatusEvent;
  pub fn set_on_ssl_status(&mut self, value : &'a dyn OIDCWebSSLStatusEvent);
  ...
}

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

Config Settings (OIDCWeb Struct)

The struct 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 struct, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.

OIDCWeb Config Settings

AccessTokenExp:   The expiration date for the access token.

The expiration date for the most recently retrieved access token.

AuthErrorURI:   The URI that provides more information about the authorization error.

When the authorization server returns with an authorization or authentication error, the OpenID provider can optionally provide a URI to a webpage that provides more information on the error.

AuthorizationCode:   The authorization code to be exchanged with the token server.

The authorization code that will be used in a request to the token server. This configuration setting is set when calling process_oidc_response or parse_oidc_response. If needed, this configuration setting can be manually set to the authorization code that should be used when calling process_oidc_response or request_tokens.

Display:   The requested display options to present to the end user.

This optional setting specifies the display options that the authorization server should display to the user. Possible values are:

pageThe authorization server SHOULD display the authentication and consent UI consistent with a full user agent page view. If the display parameter is not specified, this is the default display mode.
popupThe authorization server SHOULD display the authentication and consent UI consistent with a popup user agent window. The popup user agent window should be of an appropriate size for a login-focused dialog and should not obscure the entire window that it is popping up over.
touchThe authorization server SHOULD display the authentication and consent UI consistent with a device that leverages a touch interface.
wapThe authorization server SHOULD display the authentication and consent UI consistent with a "feature phone" type display.
The authorization server may choose to use another method to determine how to interact with the user.

This setting corresponds to the display request parameter.

ExpectedAudience:   The expected audience when validating an ID Token.

When set, the struct will check the audience (aud) claim against this value rather than the client_id property.

ExpectedIssuer:   The expected Issuer when validating an ID Token.

When set, the struct will check the issuer (iss) claim against this value rather than the value found in the id_token_issuer property.

IDTokenHint:   An ID Token value to be used as a hint about the user's session.

This setting may be specified before calling get_authorization_url to provide an ID Token as a hint about the user's current or past authenticated session. If the user identified by the ID Token present here is logged in, then the authorization server should return a positive response. If Prompt is set to none, it is recommended to set this value. The value for this setting is the raw id_token_issuer received from a previous session.

This setting corresponds to the id_token_hint request parameter.

IdTokenValidationFlags:   The checks that are ignored when validating an ID Token.

Informs the struct to skip certain checks when validating an ID Token. The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be or-ed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore the issuer (iss) claim.
0x00000002Ignore the audience (aud) claim.
0x00000004Ignore the expiration (exp) claim.
0x00000008Ignore the JWT signature.
0x00000010Ignore the "issued at" (iat) claim.
0x00000020Ignore the "not before" (nbf) claim.
0x00000040Ignore the nonce (nonce) claim.
LoginHint:   The login hint sent to the authorization server.

This setting optionally specifies an identifier of the end-user which may be used as a hint to the authorization server about the user's identity. For instance, this may be the email address or phone number of a user. The authorization may or may not use the value provided.

This setting corresponds to the login_hint request parameter.

Nonce:   The nonce value that is used to verify an ID Token.

This setting provides the value of the Nonce parameter that is provided to the OpenID Provider when making a request and the value that should be used for validation when validating an ID Token. If left blank when use_nonce is set to true, the struct will generate a new one.

When validating an ID Token with the nonce claim, the struct will check the claim against this setting. If the instance of the struct that generated the authorization request is different than the instance of the struct that is doing the validating, then this configuration setting will need to be set again. If the struct generates the nonce value, then the application will need to save the original nonce value in a safe location specific to the user authenticating.

PKCEVerifier:   The PKCE verifier used to generate the challenge.

This configuration setting, when queried, provides the PKCE verifier that is used to generate the PKCE challenge for the get_authorization_url, process_oidc_response, and request_tokens methods when use_pkce is set to true. It can be used to process the response from the authorization server from a different instance than the one used to create the authorization request.

ProcessedRequestType:   The type of OIDC response that was processed or parsed.

This configuration setting is the type of OIDC response that was processed or parsed after calling process_oidc_response or parse_oidc_response.

  • 0 - Authorization Success
  • 1 - Authorization Failure
  • 99 - Unknown Type
Prompt:   The requested conditions under which the authorization server prompts for login.

This optional setting specifies the conditions under which the authorization server should prompt for login. The value specified here is a space-delimited, case-sensitive list of one or more of the following values. For instance: login consent. Possible values are:

noneThe authorization server MUST NOT display any authentication or consent user interface pages. An error is returned if an end-user is not already authenticated, the client does not have pre-configured consent for the requested claims, or the client does not fulfill other conditions for processing the request. The error code will typically be login_required, interaction_required, or another code defined in Section 3.1.2.6 of the OpenID specification. This can be used as a method to check for existing authentication and/or consent.
loginThe authorization server SHOULD prompt the end-user for re-authentication. If it cannot re-authenticate the end-user, it MUST return an error, typically login_required.
consentThe authorization server SHOULD prompt the end-user for consent before returning information to the client. If it cannot obtain consent, it MUST return an error, typically consent_required.
select_accountThe authorization server SHOULD prompt the end-user to select a user account. This enables an end-user who has multiple accounts at the authorization server to select amongst the multiple accounts for which they might have current sessions. If it cannot obtain an account selection choice made by the end-user, it MUST return an error, typically account_selection_required.

The prompt parameter can be used to make sure that the end-user is still present for the current session or to bring attention to the request. If this parameter contains none with any other value, an error is returned.

This setting corresponds to the prompt request parameter.

ResponseMode:   The value of the response_mode parameter.

This configuration setting is used to set the response_mode parameter when building the authorization URL after calling get_authorization_url. If left empty (default) the parameter will not be set in the request. This informs the authorization server to use the defaults described by the OAuth 2.0 specification. For authorization code, this will be the query mode. For implicit, this will typically be the fragment mode. Support modes are as follows:

Mode Description
query The response parameters are encoded in a query string when the user is redirected back to the struct.
fragment The response parameters are encoded in a fragment when the user is redirected back to the struct.
form_post The response parameters are encoded as HTML form values and posted (rather than redirected) back to the struct. This mode is an extension of the OAuth 2.0 protocol and may not be supported by the authorization server.

ResponseType:   The value of the response_type request parameter.

This setting optionally specifies the value of the response_type request parameter. When grant_type is set, a value for the response_type is automatically chosen. If a different value is desired, it may be specified here. The table below illustrates the default and possible values.

grant_type Default value Possible values
0 (Authorization Code) code
  • code
1 (Implicit) id_token token
  • id_token
  • id_token token
2 (Hybrid) code id_token
  • code id_token
  • code token
  • code id_token token

ServerAuthURL:   The URL of the authorization server.

This configuration setting is used to provide the struct an authorization server URL directly to be used by the get_authorization_url method.

ServerSignerCertURL:   The URL of the signer certificate server.

This configuration setting is used to provide the struct a signer certificate server URL directly to be used when requesting signer certificates.

ServerTokenURL:   The URL of the token server.

This configuration setting is used to provide the struct a token server URL directly to be used by the process_oidc_response or request_tokens methods.

ServerUserInfoURL:   The URL of the UserInfo server.

This configuration setting is used to provide the struct a UserInfo server URL directly to be used by the request_user_info method.

HTTP Config Settings

AcceptEncoding:   Used to tell the server which types of content encodings the client supports.

When AllowHTTPCompression is True, the struct adds an Accept-Encoding header to the request being sent to the server. By default, this header's value is "gzip, deflate". This configuration setting allows you to change the value of the Accept-Encoding header. NOTE: The struct only supports gzip and deflate decompression algorithms.

AllowHTTPCompression:   This property enables HTTP compression for receiving data.

This configuration setting enables HTTP compression for receiving data. When set to True (default), the struct will accept compressed data. It then will uncompress the data it has received. The struct will handle data compressed by both gzip and deflate compression algorithms.

When True, the struct adds an Accept-Encoding header to the outgoing request. The value for this header can be controlled by the AcceptEncoding configuration setting. The default value for this header is "gzip, deflate".

The default value is True.

AllowHTTPFallback:   Whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fallback to HTTP/1.1.

This configuration setting controls whether HTTP/2 connections are permitted to fall back to HTTP/1.1 when the server does not support HTTP/2. This setting is applicable only when http_version is set to "2.0".

If set to True (default), the struct will automatically use HTTP/1.1 if the server does not support HTTP/2. If set to False, the struct fails with an error if the server does not support HTTP/2.

The default value is True.

Append:   Whether to append data to LocalFile.

This configuration setting determines whether data will be appended when writing to local_file. When set to True, downloaded data will be appended to local_file. This may be used in conjunction with range to resume a failed download. This is applicable only when local_file is set. The default value is False.

Authorization:   The Authorization string to be sent to the server.

If the Authorization property contains a nonempty string, an Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys Authorization information to the server.

This property is provided so that the HTTP struct can be extended with other security schemes in addition to the authorization schemes already implemented by the struct.

The auth_scheme property defines the authentication scheme used. In the case of HTTP Basic Authentication (default), every time user and password are set, they are Base64 encoded, and the result is put in the authorization property in the form "Basic [encoded-user-password]".

BytesTransferred:   Contains the number of bytes transferred in the response data.

This configuration setting returns the raw number of bytes from the HTTP response data, before the component processes the data, whether it is chunked or compressed. This returns the same value as the on_transfer event, by BytesTransferred.

ChunkSize:   Specifies the chunk size in bytes when using chunked encoding.

This is applicable only when UseChunkedEncoding is True. This setting specifies the chunk size in bytes to be used when posting data. The default value is 16384.

CompressHTTPRequest:   Set to true to compress the body of a PUT or POST request.

If set to True, the body of a PUT or POST request will be compressed into gzip format before sending the request. The "Content-Encoding" header is also added to the outgoing request.

The default value is False.

EncodeURL:   If set to True the URL will be encoded by the struct.

If set to True, the URL passed to the struct will be URL encoded. The default value is False.

FollowRedirects:   Determines what happens when the server issues a redirect.

This option determines what happens when the server issues a redirect. Normally, the struct returns an error if the server responds with an "Object Moved" message. If this property is set to 1 (always), the new url for the object is retrieved automatically every time.

If this property is set to 2 (Same Scheme), the new url is retrieved automatically only if the URL Scheme is the same; otherwise, the struct fails with an error.

Note: Following the HTTP specification, unless this option is set to 1 (Always), automatic redirects will be performed only for GET or HEAD requests. Other methods potentially could change the conditions of the initial request and create security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, if either the new URL server or port are different from the existing one, user and password are also reset to empty, unless this property is set to 1 (Always), in which case the same credentials are used to connect to the new server.

A on_redirect event is fired for every URL the product is redirected to. In the case of automatic redirections, the on_redirect event is a good place to set properties related to the new connection (e.g., new authentication parameters).

The default value is 0 (Never). In this case, redirects are never followed, and the struct fails with an error instead.

Following are the valid options:

  • 0 - Never
  • 1 - Always
  • 2 - Same Scheme

GetOn302Redirect:   If set to True the struct will perform a GET on the new location.

The default value is False. If set to True, the struct will perform a GET on the new location. Otherwise, it will use the same HTTP method again.

HTTP2HeadersWithoutIndexing:   HTTP2 headers that should not update the dynamic header table with incremental indexing.

HTTP/2 servers maintain a dynamic table of headers and values seen over the course of a connection. Typically, these headers are inserted into the table through incremental indexing (also known as HPACK, defined in RFC 7541). To tell the component not to use incremental indexing for certain headers, and thus not update the dynamic table, set this configuration option to a comma-delimited list of the header names.

HTTPVersion:   The version of HTTP used by the struct.

This property specifies the HTTP version used by the struct. Possible values are as follows:

  • "1.0"
  • "1.1" (default)
  • "2.0"
  • "3.0"

When using HTTP/2 ("2.0") or HTTP/3 ("3.0"), additional restrictions apply. Please see the following notes for details.

HTTP/2 Notes

When using HTTP/2, a secure Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/2 will result in an error.

If the server does not support HTTP/2, the struct will automatically use HTTP/1.1 instead. This is done to provide compatibility without the need for any additional settings. To see which version was used, check NegotiatedHTTPVersion after calling a method. The AllowHTTPFallback setting controls whether this behavior is allowed (default) or disallowed.

HTTP/3 Notes

HTTP/3 is supported only in .NET and Java.

When using HTTP/3, a secure (TLS/SSL) connection is required. Attempting to use a plaintext URL with HTTP/3 will result in an error.

IfModifiedSince:   A date determining the maximum age of the desired document.

If this setting contains a nonempty string, an If-Modified-Since HTTP header is added to the request. The value of this header is used to make the HTTP request conditional: if the requested documented has not been modified since the time specified in the field, a copy of the document will not be returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will be returned by the server and the component throws an exception

The format of the date value for IfModifiedSince is detailed in the HTTP specs. For example: Sat, 29 Oct 2017 19:43:31 GMT.

KeepAlive:   Determines whether the HTTP connection is closed after completion of the request.

If true, the component will not send the Connection: Close header. The absence of the Connection header indicates to the server that HTTP persistent connections should be used if supported. NOTE: Not all servers support persistent connections. If false, the connection will be closed immediately after the server response is received.

The default value for KeepAlive is false.

KerberosSPN:   The Service Principal Name for the Kerberos Domain Controller.

If the Service Principal Name on the Kerberos Domain Controller is not the same as the URL that you are authenticating to, the Service Principal Name should be set here.

LogLevel:   The level of detail that is logged.

This configuration setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the on_log event. Possible values are as follows:

0 (None) No events are logged.
1 (Info - default) Informational events are logged.
2 (Verbose) Detailed data are logged.
3 (Debug) Debug data are logged.

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

MaxRedirectAttempts:   Limits the number of redirects that are followed in a request.

When follow_redirects is set to any value other than frNever, the struct will follow redirects until this maximum number of redirect attempts are made. The default value is 20.

NegotiatedHTTPVersion:   The negotiated HTTP version.

This configuration setting may be queried after the request is complete to indicate the HTTP version used. When http_version is set to "2.0" (if the server does not support "2.0"), then the struct will fall back to using "1.1" automatically. This setting will indicate which version was used.

OtherHeaders:   Other headers as determined by the user (optional).

This configuration setting can be set to a string of headers to be appended to the HTTP request headers.

The headers must follow the format "header: value" as described in the HTTP specifications. Header lines should be separated by CRLF ("\r\n") .

Use this configuration setting with caution. If this configuration setting contains invalid headers, HTTP requests may fail.

This configuration setting is useful for extending the functionality of the struct beyond what is provided.

ProxyAuthorization:   The authorization string to be sent to the proxy server.

This is similar to the Authorization configuration setting, but is used for proxy authorization. If this configuration setting contains a nonempty string, a Proxy-Authorization HTTP request header is added to the request. This header conveys proxy Authorization information to the server. If proxy_user and proxy_password are specified, this value is calculated using the algorithm specified by proxy_auth_scheme.

ProxyAuthScheme:   The authorization scheme to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPassword:   A password if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyPort:   Port for the proxy server (default 80).

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyServer:   Name or IP address of a proxy server (optional).

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

ProxyUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used for the proxy.

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Proxy properties.

SentHeaders:   The full set of headers as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as sent by the client.

StatusCode:   The status code of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the result code of the last response from the server.

StatusLine:   The first line of the last response from the server.

This setting contains the first line of the last response from the server. The format of the line will be [HTTP version] [Result Code] [Description].

TransferredData:   The contents of the last response from the server.

This configuration setting contains the contents of the last response from the server.

TransferredDataLimit:   The maximum number of incoming bytes to be stored by the struct.

If TransferredDataLimit is set to 0 (default), no limits are imposed. Otherwise, this reflects the maximum number of incoming bytes that can be stored by the struct.

TransferredHeaders:   The full set of headers as received from the server.

This configuration setting returns the complete set of raw headers as received from the server.

TransferredRequest:   The full request as sent by the client.

This configuration setting returns the full request as sent by the client. For performance reasons, the request is not normally saved. Set this configuration setting to ON before making a request to enable it. Following are examples of this request:

.NET Http http = new Http(); http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.PostData = "body"; http.Post("http://someserver.com"); Console.WriteLine(http.Config("TransferredRequest")); C++ HTTP http; http.Config("TransferredRequest=on"); http.SetPostData("body", 5); http.Post("http://someserver.com"); printf("%s\r\n", http.Config("TransferredRequest"));

UseChunkedEncoding:   Enables or Disables HTTP chunked encoding for transfers.

If UseChunkedEncoding is set to True, the struct will use HTTP-chunked encoding when posting, if possible. HTTP-chunked encoding allows large files to be sent in chunks instead of all at once. If set to False, the struct will not use HTTP-chunked encoding. The default value is False.

NOTE: Some servers (such as the ASP.NET Development Server) may not support chunked encoding.

UseIDNs:   Whether to encode hostnames to internationalized domain names.

This configuration setting specifies whether hostnames containing non-ASCII characters are encoded to internationalized domain names. When set to True, if a hostname contains non-ASCII characters, it is encoded using Punycode to an IDN (internationalized domain name).

The default value is False and the hostname will always be used exactly as specified. NOTE: The CodePage setting must be set to a value capable of interpreting the specified host name. For instance, to specify UTF-8, set CodePage to 65001. In the C++ Edition for Windows, the *W version of the class must be used. For instance, DNSW or HTTPW.

UseProxyAutoConfigURL:   Whether to use a Proxy auto-config file when attempting a connection.

This configuration specifies whether the struct will attempt to use the Proxy auto-config URL when establishing a connection and proxy_auto_detect is set to True.

When True (default), the struct will check for the existence of a Proxy auto-config URL, and if found, will determine the appropriate proxy to use.

UserAgent:   Information about the user agent (browser).

This is the value supplied in the HTTP User-Agent header. The default setting is "IPWorks HTTP Component - www.nsoftware.com".

Override the default with the name and version of your software.

TCPClient Config Settings

ConnectionTimeout:   Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.

When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the struct will use timeout for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

FirewallAutoDetect:   Tells the struct whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHost:   Name or IP address of firewall (optional).

If a FirewallHost is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHTTPVersion:   The HTTP version to be used when connecting through a tunneling proxy.

When FirewallType is set to a tunneling proxy, this setting dictates which HTTP version is used when connecting.

FirewallPassword:   Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPort:   The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.

The FirewallPort is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

NOTE: This configuration setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

Possible values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.

If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the struct fails with an error.

NOTE: This setting is provided for use by structs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

KeepAliveInterval:   The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveTime:   The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

Linger:   When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the struct returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

LingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the connection linger.

LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The local_host setting 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 value of an interface will make the struct initiate connections (or accept in the case of server structs) only through that interface.

If the struct is connected, the local_host setting 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).

LocalPort:   The port in the local host where the struct binds.

This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the struct to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by local_port after the connection is established.

local_port cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxLineLength:   The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.

MaxLineLength is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an eol string.

If an eol string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the on_data_in event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no eol is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the on_data_in event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

MaxTransferRate:   The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.

This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

ProxyExceptionsList:   A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.

This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

www.google.com;www.example.com

TCPKeepAlive:   Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.

If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set KeepAliveTime and KeepAliveInterval to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

NOTE: This value is not applicable in Java.

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When set to True, the socket will send all data that are ready to send at once. When set to False, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this configuration setting is set to False.

UseIPv6:   Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the struct will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the struct will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the struct to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to 2. The default value is 0. Possible values are as follows:

0 IPv4 only
1 IPv6 only
2 IPv6 with IPv4 fallback
UseNTLMv2:   Whether to use NTLM V2.

When authenticating with NTLM, this setting specifies whether NTLM V2 is used. By default this value is True and NTLM V2 will be used. Set this to False to use NTLM V1.

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets:   Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When ssl_provider 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 event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this configuration setting has no effect if ssl_provider 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 struct 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 struct is the same.

SSLCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificates to be included when performing an SSL handshake.

When ssl_provider 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:

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

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

SSLCheckCRL:   Whether to check the Certificate Revocation List for the server certificate.

This configuration setting specifies whether the struct will check the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) specified by the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the struct will first obtain the list of CRL URLs from the server certificate's CRL distribution points extension. The struct 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 struct fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the CRL check will not be performed by the struct. 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 struct will use OCSP to check the validity of the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the struct will first obtain the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) URL from the server certificate's OCSP extension. The struct 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 struct fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default), the struct 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 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 is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the 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 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:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw

-----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 struct will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If 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 is set to Platform include the following: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when ssl_provider is set to Platform include the following:

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

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with 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:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default - Client and Server)
TLS1.1768 (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 struct will first try to use the platform TLS 1.3 implementation when the ssl_provider 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 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 and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If 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 struct when the ssl_provider 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 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 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 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 event.

If set to True, all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the on_ssl_server_authentication 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 struct 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 struct will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

NOTE: This configuration setting is applicable only when ssl_provider 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown certificate authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown certificate authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore 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 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:

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

... Root Cert...
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 is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the struct 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 struct fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma-separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: 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 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)
  • "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This configuration setting is applicable only when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.
TLS13SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.

This configuration setting specifies a comma-separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This configuration setting should be modified only if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192,mlkem_512,mlkem_768,mlkem_1024,x25519_mlkem_768,secp256r1_mlkem_768

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

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096" (default)
  • "ffdhe_6144" (default)
  • "ffdhe_8192" (default)
  • "mlkem_512" (default)
  • "mlkem_768" (default)
  • "mlkem_1024" (default)
  • "x25519_mlkem_768" (default)
  • "secp256r1_mlkem_768" (default)

Post-quantum algorithms (mlkem_512,mlkem_768,mlkem_1024,x25519_mlkem_768,secp256r1_mlkem_768) in our components rely on the operating system's underlying cryptographic primitives. The following platforms are currently supported:

  • Windows Server 2025
  • Windows 11 24H2
  • Windows 11 25H2

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method that does not complete within timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

NOTE: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.

FirewallData:   Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the struct is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the struct is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a struct 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.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the struct will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the struct 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 section.
