Web Authentication profiles (API)

Web Authentication parameters

Use these parameters in the JSON data structure when you apply the Web Authentication policy (POLICY_CODE_WEB_AUTHENTICATION) to the app with app-market/policy.

Web Authentication API resources

To manage Web Authentication profiles:

• profile: Use type="web_authentication" to create an Web Authentication profile. See example below.
• profile/catalog/{policytype}: Use "web_authentication" for "{type}". GET returns an array of details for all policy profiles of the specified type.
• profile/{GUID}: Use the profile ID to specify a policy profile. GET returns details for the specified profile, PUT updates the details in the specified profile, and DELETE archives the profile.
• settings/web-authentication-default-profile (settings/{policytype}-default-profile: POST sets one of the Web Authentication profiles as the default. GET returns the GUID of the current default profile. DELETE archives the current default.

To retrieve details for the policy:

• app-policy/{GUID} : Use the policy ID to specify a policy. GET returns details for the specified policy.
• app-policy/code/{code} : UsePOLICY_CODE_WEB_AUTHENTICATION to specify the policy. GET returns details for the specified policy.

To secure apps with the Web Authentication policy:

• app-market/policy : Use the policy GUID to apply the policy to an app.
