Map OpenID Connect Scopes and Claims¶

This page guides you through mapping OpenID Connect (OIDC) scopes and claims.

This means that when you request for an OIDC token, you can specify a single scope value that is bound to a set of multiple claims. When that OIDC token is sent to the UserInfo endpoint, only the claims which are common in both the OIDC scope config file and the SP claim configuration (i.e., the intersection of claims in both these configurations) will be returned.

Add scopes¶

1. Log in to the MWARE IAM Management Console (https://<IS_HOST>:<PORT>/carbon) using administrator credentials (admin:admin).

2. Under Manage, click OIDC Scopes > Add.

3. Enter a Scope Name.

4. Click Add OIDC Claim and select claims from the dropdown of available OIDC claims.

   

5. Click Finish to add the new scope claim mapping.

Edit or list scopes¶

1. Log in to the MWARE IAM Management Console (https://<IS_HOST>:<PORT>/carbon) using administrator credentials (admin:admin).

2. Under Manage, click OIDC Scopes > List.

   

3. Select one of the following actions.

   • Click Add claims to add claims to a scope.
   • Click Update to remove claims from a scope.
   • Click Delete to delete the scope mapping.

Add custom claims to OIDC scope¶

When the existing claim mappings are not enough for your requirement and if you need to add a custom OIDC claim to a scope, then follow the steps below.

1. Add a custom claim to the local dialect (https://wso2.org/claims)

2. Add an external claim to the http://wso2.org/oidc/claim dialect referring the local claim created in step 1.

3. Click OIDC Scopes > List and add the new OIDC claim under the desired scope.

Handling claims that are JSON objects¶

OIDC considers address as a JSON object. Therefore, if you want to pass an address using a different claim other than the address claim that is already available, you can do it using any of the following methods:

• Without using the address. prefix.

  1. Register a scope named address in the MWARE IAM's registry.
  2. Add the value as the street or lane or any preferred value.

• Create a new external claim using the address prefix.

  1. Click Add under Claims.
  2. Click Add External Claim.
  3. Select http://wso2.ord/oidc/claim as the value for Dialect URI.

  4. Enter address.street as the value for External Claim URI.

     Info

     You can enter any value with the prefix address., such as address.country, address.lane, and much more.

  5. Map the claim you are creating to any claim within MWARE IAM.

     Info

     For example, you can map it to http://wso2.org/claims/location.

Now you can see the claim you created being listed. It is created as a JSON object in MWARE IAM.
