Add saml token into soap header

[patch_78]

Hi,

My JSF web application is integrated with spring security saml. This web app will call secured web service. How can this web app get and add security token into a soap request ?

Thanks,
patch

Hi,

You can serialize the SAML Assertion received during single sign-on using:

Authentication authentication = SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication();
SAMLCredential samlCredential = (SAMLCredential) authentication.getCredentials();
String messageStr = XMLHelper.nodeToString(samlCredential.getAuthenticationAssertion().getDOM());

Including the assertion in the SOAP call is then specific to the web-service client you're using.
