Third Party Policy Advice

Note: this component stores cluster-wide configuration data and is mirrored across all servers in the topology within the the same cluster.

Note: changes to cluster-wide configuration objects are immediately and automatically mirrored across all servers within the same cluster, so offline changes are not supported.

Third Party Policy Advice supports Policy Advice implementations created in third-party code using the Server SDK.

Required
No
Admin Action Required

advice-arguments

Description
Contains a list of argument name-value pairs that may be passed into the implementation class of this Third Party Policy Advice. Arguments specified by this property will be evaluated during policy evaluation and therefore may be computed using information retrieved from the policy request context.
Each argument must be given in the form 'name=value'. The value portion of each argument is interpreted as a JEXL expression that when evaluated yields the value to be passed to the Third Party Policy Advice implementation.
Default Value
If no argument names are specified, no arguments will be passed to the advice implementation.
Allowed Values
A string
Multi-Valued

No
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action

evaluation-order-index (Read-Only)

Description
If multiple Policy Advice are returned from a single policy request, then this property governs the order in which the Policy Advice will be processed by the Policy Enforcement Point. Policy Advice with a smaller value will be evaluated first. If multiple Policy Advice have the same evaluation-order-index, then their order of evaluation is indeterminate.
Default Value
10
Allowed Values
An integer value. Lower limit is 0.
Multi-Valued
No
Required
No
Admin Action Required
None. Modification requires no further action
