When integrating towards to OIDC platform you will need to provide a redirect_uri where you will receive the Authorization Code/Token. Traditionally this is done by specifying an endpoint in your web application. By default the JS Connector do not need any special considerations on the backend, but when using method inline or window, you can integrate with the JS Connector. See the following sections for further information on Back-end implementation of the JS Connector:

Implementing redirect_uri when using method window or inline

Since the JS Connector can open an iframe or a window for you, the handling of the post-authentication step is also important. This section will explain how you can take advantage of cross-domain messaging (XDM) to send the received code / tokens from the active window or iframe to the parent page (your site).

The redirect_uri needs to handle the authorization response in order to receive authorization code and tokens on behalf of the user. This information is either delivered as part of the URL, or as a FORM POST depending on which response_mode is specified in the parameters.

Then, if you follow the callback page example for redirect_uri, you will see that special XDM calls are made to pass the information from the window/iframe to the listening JS Connector instance on the main site.

Finally this will cause the callback function passed in the doConnect method to be called with the data retrieved in the authentication response

With specific token_url and/or userinfo_url (experimental feature)

You can have the JS Connector call token_url and userinfo_url endpoints with the received data from the authentication response.

Token endpoint (token_url)

URLAs specified in configuration parameter token_endpoint
Request modePOST with parameters as application/x-www-form-urlencoded data
Request parameters


grant_typeGrant type is always authorization_code
codeValue from response of the foregoing Authorize request
redirect_uriRedirect URI used in the foregoing Authorize request
client_idNot supported since the OIDC clients must always authenticate
OIDC Response /oauth/token

JSON

    scope: "openid phone address", 
    id_token: "...."  // JWT
}

Userinfo endpoint (userinfo_url)

Using the access token (which also could be stored on the server) to access user information OIDC.
