SOA Suite 12C: Generating a JSON Web Token (JWT) in OSB

Posted on by — 7 Comments ↓

“JSON Web Token (JWT) is a JSON-based open standard (RFC 7519) for creating access tokens that assert some number of claims.

The tokens are signed by the server’s key, so the client Continue ReadingSOA Suite 12C: Generating a JSON Web Token (JWT) in OSB→

In my previous post I showed you how you could consume the Google Geo service using the OSB. In that example we used XML as the return format. It was also possible to return JSON. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation and is smaller then XML and faster en easier to parse. The JSON text format is syntactically identical to the code for creating JavaScript objects. That is why it Continue ReadingConverting JSON to XML in the OSB when consuming a REST service.→
