Introduction

SSO Management API is a REST API for managing SSO Server. With Management API it is possible to automate management tasks that previously were only possible with the web browser based Management Console.

Access to API

To operate REST API an OAuth2 access token is needed. To get the access token an OAuth2 Resource Server configured as Ubisecure agent needs to be activated and configured in the Ubisecure SSO server.

SSO Management REST API calls need to have the access token in the bearer authorization header.

Authorization: Bearer {YOUR_SECURE_TOKEN}

Please check OAuth 2.0 API - SSO page for more information about OAuth API.
Please check SSO Management API Configuration Guide for information how to configure and start using SSO API.

Scope of the API

Ubisecure SSO REST API can be used to create:

Sites
Applications
- Update application metadata
Groups
Authentication Policies
- PolicyItem
Links between objects
Users
Mappings
Keys - see Using Management API to manage keys for API calls and SSO key rotation for further details

URI format

The URI format of Ubisecure SSO Management API is based on the following principles:

Path starts with object type
- Example: /site
After object type, the path to the object
- Example: /site/acmecorporation/
- Example: /group/acmecorporation/users
- Example: /application/acmecorporation/salesforce
- Example: /policy/acmecorporation/policy

URI can contain a terminator ($link, $attribute) after the path to an object. This is described in more detail below in section Terminators.

Data types, attributes and linking

To get more information on how the attributes and linkings are connected, there are three sub-pages explaining them in more detail.

You can also see a overview of the schema in our example site https://manage.example.ubidemo.com/sso-api-sample/schema/models

HTTP methods

GET is used to query data.

POST writes a new object.

PUT writes object (update existing object)

DELETE is used to delete object or remove object linking.

Terminators

$link

Is used as part of the URI to link objects to other objects, and to list/query objects linked to other objects.
After $link the URI contains the path to another object as setter for the scope for the listing of related objects.
Section Response Messages describes in detail how links are used.

$attribute

Is used to query or update object attribute values. Version Ubisecure SSO 7.5.0 contains $attribute setting for application metadata – other $attribute settings will be available in future versions.

HTTP response status codes

Ubisecure SSO Management REST API uses following HTTP response status codes:

HTTP Response Status 200 (GET, DELETE)
- Operation was successful. Returned when no error in GET, and after DELETE.
HTTP Response Status 201 (Create, Update) (POST, PUT)
- Resource created or updated successfully.
HTTP Response Status 400 (Bad Request)
- The request was invalid.
HTTP Response Status 401 (Not Authorized)
- Invalid credentials

Response messages

Client can choose the result to be plain text, JSON or XML.This is set on the HTTP accept – header by setting the media type to Accept: text/plain; or Accept: application/json; or Accept: application/xml.

Example

POST /site/AcmeCorporation

type=site
name=Sitetest

Response:

Plain text: site /site/SiteTest
JSON: {"type":"site","id":"/site/SiteTest","attributes":{"name":"SiteTest"}}
XML: <object type="site" id="/site/SiteTest"><attribute name="name" value="SiteTest"/></object>

HTTP methods

GET

For successful GET operations the API returns HTTP status code 200. Response content contains object type, id (path) and attributes.
Format of query to Ubisecure SSO REST API is as described in the section URI Format. Section Response Messages describes in more detail the querying of object links.

Example GET-query and response

GET /site/System

Response JSON:

{"type":"site","id":"/site/System","attributes":{"name":"System","description":["Ubilogin System"]}}

Response XML:

<object type="site" id="/site/System"><attribute name="name" value="System"/><attribute name="description"><value>Ubilogin System</value></attribute></object>

POST

Used to create objects.

For successful operations the API returns HTTP status code 201. Response content contains object type, id (path) and attributes.

PUT operations can be used to update any data created with POST operation.

PUT

Used to create objects or links to other objects.

For successful operations the API returns HTTP status code 201.

Response content contains object type, id (path) and attributes.

PUT can be used to update data created using POST operation.

DELETE

Used to delete objects or remove a links.

The response is 200 (OK) when delete was successful.

Create/Update objects

If POSTing an object with same path twice the system will give an error as the object already exists. PUT can be used to update existing objects (parameters).

Using Management API to manage keys

SSO Management API can be used to control signing and encryption keys used by Ubisecure SSO. A simple key rotation process can involve steps like

Create a new key which becomes valid at the same time with the current key (i.e. the key validity times overlap)
Associate the key to SSO server
When the old key has become invalid, remove the association from SSO server
Delete the old key

Create a new key or update an existing key

A new 2048 bit signing or encryption key can be created using the following endpoint. A successful operation creates a new key to the system but it is not yet in use. To take the key into active use (assuming it is enabled and within its validity window), one has to associate the key to a site.

If the system does not contain a key with the given name, one will be created.

PUT /credential/{site}/{name}

Path parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`site`	string	yes	The site where the key is stored. Server keys should be located in `System/ServerKeyContainer` site.
`name`	string	yes	The name of the key.

Query parameters

Content type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`kty`	string	yes	The type of the key. For example `RSA.`
`kid`	string	no	The key identifier as defined by RFC 7517 JSON Web Key specification.
`enabled`	boolean	no	Denotes whether the key is enabled or not. Defaults to `false`.
`use`	string	no	The usage of the key as defined by RFC 7517 JSON Web Key specification. Valid values are `enc` - for encryption `sig` - for signing If this parameter is not set the key can be used for both signing and encryption.
`notBefore`	datetime	no	The date and time as specified by ISO 8601 after which the key is valid. If left out the key is valid immediately. When performing an update, leaving this field empty will clear any previously set date and time.
`notOnOrAfter`	datetime	no	The date and time as specified by ISO 8601 after which the key is not valid. If left out the key will be valid forever. When performing an update, leaving this field empty will clear any previously set date and time.
`description`	string	no	A human-readable description of the key.

Example - SAML2 or OAuth2 integration

Introduction

In this example we create a SAML2 or OAuth2 application to Ubisecure SSO server. Users of this application exist in Ubisecure CustomerID and are members of a group that will be linked to this example application. Example application utilizes the password.1 authentication method.

Example application is created under an existing site named AcmeCorporation.

End result as a tree in the database

Site: AcmeCorporation
- Site: SampleSite
  - Application: SampleApplication
    - AllowedTo: SampleGroup
    - Method: password.1
    - Authorization policy: SamplePolicy
  - Policy: SamplePolicy
  - Group: SampleGroup
    - Member: link to CustomerID group

Steps to build the application

Example OAuth2/SAML2 application is built in following steps:

Create a site for this application, named SampleSite. Create under the site AcmeCorporation.
Create application, named SampleApplication
Create an authorization policy named SamplePolicy.
Create the group for the application users, SampleGroup
Add the authentication method password.1 to SampleSite to allow using of password based login
Add SampleGroup to SampleApplication's allowed users
Add the authentication method password.1 also to SampleApplication
Add attributes to SamplePolicy (To define that also email is sent to the caller of this application)
Add SamplePolicy to SampleApplication
Link SampleGroup to correct CustomerID group so that customerID users are linked to SampleGroup.
Add metadata to SampleApplication

After this Ubisecure CustomerID users (of some group) have access to SampleApplication

The needed REST API calls

Create site:

POST /site/AcmeCorporation

type=site
name=SampleSite

Create application, policy and group under the site:

POST /site/AcmeCorporation/SampleSite

type=application
name= SampleApplication

POST /site/AcmeCorporation/SampleSite

type=policy
name=SamplePolicy

POST /site/AcmeCorporation/SampleSite

type=group
name=SampleGroup

Example - Office365 Integration

Introduction

In this example we create an Office365 application. This differs from the OAuth2/SAML2 example mainly in that office365 needs to have a common application for all Office365 application users.

To make Office365 application available to certain company and group we create a site for the company and under the site a group that is linked to CustomerID group and has access to preconfigured common Office365 application.

End result as a tree in the database

Site: AcmeCorporation
- Site: SampleOfficeSite
  - Group: SampleOfficeGroup
    - Member: link to CustomerID group
    - AccessTo: office365 application

This should be preconfigured in the Ubisecure SSO server

Site: common
- Application: Office365
  - Method: password.1
  - Authorization policy: Office365Policy
- Policy: Office365Policy

Steps to build the application

Example Office365 application is built in following steps:

Create a site for this application, in this example named SampleOfficeSite. Create the site under site AcmeCorporation.
Create the group for the application users, SampleOfficeGroup
Link SampleOfficeGroup to correct CustomerID group so that customerID users are linked to SampleOfficeGroup.
Link SampleOfficeGroup to Office365 application's allowedTo attribute to add access to office365 application.
Add attributes to Office365Policy (To define that also email is sent to the caller of this application)
- Note that this adds attributes to common site's Office365Policy

After this CustomerID users (of some group) have access to Office365 application.

The needed REST API calls

Create site and group:

POST /site/AcmeCorporation

type=site
name=SampleOfficeSite

POST /site/AcmeCorporation/SampleOfficeSite

type=group
name=SampleOffice365Users

Link group to common office365 users group via accessTo attribute:

PUT /group/AcmeCorporation/SampleOfficeSite/SampleOffice365Users/$link/accessTo/application/common/Office365

Link group to the CID group to add access for the users of the CID group:

PUT /group/AcmeCorporation/SampleOfficeSite/SampleOffice365Users/$link/member/group/eIDM Users/[path to CID group]

Add authorization policy data:

POST /policy/common/Office365/office365policy

Group=/group/AcmeCorporation/SampleOfficeSite/SampleOffice365Users
Name=upn
Value=${user.mail}

POST /policy/common/Office365/office365policy

Group=/group/AcmeCorporation/SampleOfficeSite/SampleOffice365Users
Name=issuer
Value="acmecoprporation.com"
