Mandatory Claims in OAuth 2.0 with Identity Server 5.3.0



When logging in to the Playground2 Sample with the Identity Server(as in the previous blog post - Getting Started with OAuth 2.0 using WSO2 Identity Server 5.3.0 and Playground2 Sample), it prompted for few claim values again although those claims were already set in the logged in user’s profile.




This blog post provides the steps to be taken in order to avoid this being prompted each and every time a user logs in.


This happens since these 2 local claims (http://wso2.org/claims/organization and http://wso2.org/claims/givenname) are not mapped in OIDC claim dialect as mentioned in https://docs.wso2.com/display/IS530/Adding+Claim+Mapping.


In order to map, following steps should be followed.


Select 'List' under 'Claims' in WSO2 Identity Server Management Console Main Tab.

From there, select 'List' under 'Claims' in WSO2 Identity Server Management Console Main Tab.

Next, select the OIDC claim dialect to be mapped from the list. Since I want to map the 'given_name' claim, I will select the 'Edit' of that claim as below.

From the below given interface, select 'http://wso2.org/claims/givenname' from the 'Mapped Local Claim' dropdown and 'Update'.

In order to add the claim 'Organization', select 'Add' under 'Claims' in WSO2 Identity Server Management Console Main Tab.

Then, next step is to select 'Add External Claim' from the given options.

From here, in the 'Dialect URI' dropdown select the dialect you want to add the claim to. I will select 'http://wso2.org/oidc/claim' since that's the claim we want to add the claim to.


Then provide the claim as 'External Claim URI' and select the local claim as 'Mapped Local Claim' from the drop down.

After following these steps you can successfully log in to the Playground2 without providing Mandatory claims.


As mentioned above, if any user claim you set in the claim configuration of the service provider to be received to the client app, if the same claim is not added in the Open ID Connect Dialect, after authentication Identity Server will request the user to provide those claims. In order to avoid that, always make sure to map all the requested claims in the OIDC dialect with the claims in the Local Claim Dialect.

Admin panel of a Q & A Forum

In a Q & A Forum, when a user posts a question, it should be sent to the administrator for approval in case it contains inappropriate content. After approval it should be removed from this pending approval page and other users should be able to see the question afterwards. To enable this, we should maintain an approval column in our database table of records and for each record approval should be set to false by default. In the Pending approvals page only the records with approval=false should be displayed. Below is  the MySQL  statement for retrieval, $sql="SELECT * FROM topics WHERE approval=false"; To know which post was approved we should embed the post_id to the URL. And the relevant post should be updated as approval=true. Below is the complete code. <?php $sql="SELECT * FROM topics WHERE approval=false"; $query=mysqli_query($conn,$sql); echo '<form name="approve" method="p...
