Introduction

Attribute Connectors act as Policy Information Points (PIP) that link to external data sources holding the required attribute values required by a Policy Decision Point (PDP) to evaluate policies. Axiomatics provides several standard Attribute Connectors such as LDAP, SQL, Table, HTTP, and Parsers (JWT, JSON, XML), while custom Attribute Connectors can be created to fetch attributes that are not supported by the default ones.

The HTTP Attribute Connector can be used to connect to a web service (HTTP-based service which returns structured content e.g. JSON and XML) and retrieve its payload which it then returns to the PDP.

The HTTP connector can be configured to send an HTTP request (either GET or POST) to a remote service. It then receives the response which it returns as an attribute to the PDP.
