SOAP Web Services Policy Fields

The following fields require explanation:

Symbol

Specifies the name that identifies the access policy to you. Assign a symbol that allows you to recognize the access policy easily. This field is required.

Code

Specifies the unique code that identifies the access policy to the system. This field is required.

Proxy Contact

Specifies the contact to use for all web service operations and security. You can enter a contact name directly into this field, or click the search icon to select the contact name.

Default

Indicates that this policy is the default policy. Only one active default policy is allowed. If you select this option when creating an access policy, the default setting of the current default policy is removed.

Has Key

Indicates whether a public key as been associated with this policy. This field is updated when a public key is associated with a policy using the pdm_pki utility and cannot be changed.

Allow Impersonate

Allows the policyholder to invoke the impersonate() web services method and create a web services session in the name of the user to be impersonated. Additional access authentication is not performed when creating the session. However, only when the grant_level of the new user’s access type is less than or equal to the access_level of the proxy user’s access type, can this method be successfully called.

Note: For more information about this option, see the Technical Reference Guide.

Note: If multi-tenancy is installed, the list page displays Tenant and Public Data settings in the search filter. Public Data can be Excluded or Included with Tenant data; Only searches for public objects exclusively. On detail pages, select the appropriate tenant from the list. If you select <empty>, the object is public.
