Fetching RiskMinder Database Attributes

The listArcotAttributes operation is used to fetch the user attributes that are used to store the user information in the RiskMinder database.

This section walks you through the following steps for fetching the user attributes supported by the RiskMinder database:

Preparing the Request Message
Invoking the Web Service
Interpreting the Response Message

Preparing the Request Message

The listArcotAttributesRequest message is used to fetch the user attributes. The following table lists the elements of this request message.

Element	Mandatory	Description
clientTxId	No	Unique transaction identifier that your calling application can include. This identifier helps in tracking the related transactions.

Invoking the Web Service

To fetch the RiskMinder database attributes:

(Optional) Include the authentication and authorization details in the header of the listArcotAttributes operation. See "Managing Web Services Security" for more information on the header elements.
Use the listArcotAttributesRequest elements to fetch the user attributes, as listed in the table.
Use the listArcotAttributesRequest message and construct the input message by using the details specified in the preceding step.
Invoke the listArcotAttributes operation of the ArcorUserRegistryMgmtSvc service to fetch the user attributes supported by the RiskMinder database.
This operation returns the listArcotAttributesResponse message that includes the transaction identifier, authentication token, and user attributes. See the following section for more information on the response message.

Interpreting the Response Message

The response message, listArcotAttributesResponse, returns the transaction identifier and the authentication token in the SOAP envelope header. The SOAP body includes the user attributes for a successful transaction and the Fault response for an error condition.

See the following table for more information on the elements returned for a successful transaction. Refer to appendix, "Exceptions and Error Codes" if there are any errors.

Element	Description

Header Elements
udsTransactionID	The unique identifier of the transaction performed by using UDS.
authToken	The authentication token that is returned if the credential verification to access the Web service was successful. This token eliminates the need for you to present the authentication credential for successive access to the Web service. By default, the authentication token is valid for one day, after which you need to authenticate again.

DATECREATED	The timestamp when the user account was created.
DATEMODIFIED	The timestamp when the user account was last modified.
EMAILADDR	The email address of the user.
FNAME	The first name of the user.
IMAGE	The personal assurance image that the user selected.
LNAME	The last name of the user.
MNAME	The middle name of the user.
PAM	The Personal Assurance Message (PAM) that is displayed when the user tries to access any resource protected by RiskMinder. PAM is the text string that serves as server verification to the client and is set by the user during enrollment.
PAMURL	The URL that lists the images, which can be used by the user to select their personal assurance image.
STATUS	The status of the user in the database: INITIAL ACTIVE INACTIVE DELETED
TELEPHONENUMBER	The telephone number of the user.
