Interface CredentialVaultService
- All Superinterfaces:
- PortletService
public interface CredentialVaultService- extends PortletService
Portlet Service for JSR compliant portlets to access the WebSphere Portal Credential Vault. The portlet service offers the following functionality:
- Management of Credential Vault Slots. Credential Vault Segments can be retrieved, and Vault Slots can be created and deleted.
- Management of Credential Secrets. The service allows to set or retrieve credentials from the credential vault.
Available Secret Types in the Credential Vault are definied as constants in this interface. Please note that not all types have to be available in the defined Vault Segments, depending on the utilized Vault Adapter implementation. Supported types per segment can be retrieved through VaultSegmentConfig#getSupportedSecretTypes().
Available Credential Types in the Credential Vault are defined externally in a credential type registry configuration file and can be retrieved through the method getCredentialTypes()that returns their respective type string. Default credential type strings are defined as constants in the interface CredentialTypes.

- 5.1.0.1

createCredentialSlot
CredentialSlotConfig createCredentialSlot(java.lang.String resourceName, ObjectID segmentId, java.util.Map descriptions, java.util.Map keywords, int secretType, boolean active, boolean portletPrivate, javax.portlet.PortletRequest portletRequest) throws CredentialVaultException
- Creates a new credential slot in the given vault segment. This method should be used by "ordinary" portlets, but not by "admin portlets", because this method only allows to create non system slots. The returned CredentialSlotConfig object holds the Slot ID of the newly generated slot. If one of the required parameters is null, an exception is thrown.
- Parameters:
- resourceName - Name of the resource. Must not be null.
- segmentId - ObjectId of the segment that this slot is created in. Must not be null. Must be the ObjectID of a user mapped segment. As there is currently just one user mapped segment in the system, this parameter must contain the result of the method getDefaultUserCredentialSegmentId()!
- descriptions - The slot descriptions as a Map, keyed by their corresponding Locale objects Key: Locale (max length 64 characters) Value: String (max length 255 characters) The given map can be empty.
- keywords - The slot keywords as a Map, keyed by their corresponding Locale objects Key: Locale (max length 64 characters). Can be null. Value: String (max length 255 characters) The given map can be empty.
- secretType - The secrtet type identifier. Must not be null.
- active - Flag whether this credential may only be returned in form of an active credential object (true) or both as active and passive credential objects (false)
- portletPrivate - Flag whether the credential secret is portlet secific (true) or shared between all of a user's portlets (false).
- portletRequest - The portlet request. Must not be null.
- Returns:
- CredentialSlot The credential slot configuration as CredentialSlotConfig object.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException
deleteCredentialSlot
void deleteCredentialSlot(java.lang.String slotName) throws CredentialVaultException
- Deletes an existing credential slot. The parameter is the Slot ID that can be retrieved through CredentialSlotConfig#getSlotId().
- Parameters:
- slotName - The credential (slot) id.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException - Is thrown if the credential slot could not be deleted or found.
getDefaultUserCredentialSegmentId
ObjectID getDefaultUserCredentialSegmentId() throws CredentialVaultException
- Returns the ObjectID of the default user managed vault segment. Currently there is only one user managed segment, so this returns the ID of the user managed segment.
- Returns:
- ObjectID The ObjectID of the default user managed vault segment, or null, if no user managed vault segment is configured in the system.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException - Is thrown if the user segment could not be found.
getAllCredentialSegments
java.util.List getAllCredentialSegments() throws CredentialVaultException
- Returns a List of all available Vault Segments.
- Returns:
- List of VaultSegmentConfig objects representing all vault segments.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException - Is thrown if the segments could not be retrieved.
getCredential
Credential getCredential(java.lang.String slotId, java.lang.String type, java.util.Map config, javax.portlet.PortletRequest request) throws CredentialVaultException
- Returns a specific credential from a specific slot. The type of the credential has to map the type of the stored credential. The parameter is the Slot ID that can be retrieved through CredentialSlotConfig#getSlotId().
- Parameters:
- slotId - The credential (slot) id.
- type - The credential type as specified in the credential type registry. Default credential type strings are defined as constants in the interface CredentialTypes.
- config - The backend application specific configuration that is needed to initialize this credential. This is one part of the credential configuration. The credential vault service will usually add further information to this config from other sources: the user's secret from the actual credential store and the credential instance specific parameters from the portal's credential configuration. This parameter can be null.
- request - The portlet request is used to determine information about the portlet.
- Returns:
- The retrieved credential object. The actual object will match the Credential Type.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException - if the credential could not been retrieved - either for technical or secuity reasons.
- CredentialSecretNotSetException - if the requested credential secret is not set (by the user or admin).
getLTPATokenCredential
Credential getLTPATokenCredential(java.lang.String slotId, java.util.Map config, javax.portlet.PortletRequest request) throws CredentialVaultException
- Returns a LTPA Token credential.
- Parameters:
- slotId - The credential (slot) id.
- config - The backend application specific configuration that is needed to initialize this credential. This is one part of the credential configuration. The credential vault service adds further information to this config from other sources: the user's secret from the actual credential store, the credential instance specific parameters from the portal's credential configuration and the LTPA_TOKEN_TYPE configured in the VaultService.properties file.
- request - The portlet request is used to determine information about the portlet.
- Returns:
- The retrieved credential object. The Credential Type is Ltpa.

- CredentialVaultException - if the credential could not be retrieved - either for technical or secuity reasons.
getUserSubject
javax.security.auth.Subject getUserSubject(javax.portlet.PortletRequest request) throws CredentialVaultException
- Returns the user's JAAS Subject. The JAAS Subject is retrieved from the user object, so this method should only be called if a user is currently logged in. Otherwise a PortletServiceException is thrown. Note: The returned object is a transient credential.
- Parameters:
- request - The portlet request is used to determine the user.
- Returns:
- Subject The user's JAAS subject.
- Throws:
- CredentialVaultException - if the subject could not been retrieved, e.g. because there is no logged in user.
