Service Access Strategy - Unauthorized URL

The default strategy allows one to configure a service with the following properties:

Field Description
unauthorizedRedirectUrl Optional url to redirect the flow in case service access is not allowed. Values can use the Spring Expression Language syntax.

Service access is denied if the principal does not have a cn attribute containing the value super-user. If so, the user will be redirected to https://www.github.com instead.

  "serviceId" : "testId",
  "name" : "testId",
  "id": 1,
  "accessStrategy" : {
    "@class" : "org.apereo.cas.services.DefaultRegisteredServiceAccessStrategy",
    "unauthorizedRedirectUrl" : "https://www.github.com",
    "requiredAttributes" : {
      "@class" : "java.util.HashMap",
      "cn" : [ "java.util.HashSet", [ "super-user" ] ]
    }
  }
}

Dynamic URLs

Service access is denied if the principal does not have a cn attribute containing the value super-user. If so, the redirect URL will be dynamically determined based on outcome of the specified Groovy script.
