Response Attributes and Default HTTP Headers Overview

Response attributes and default HTTP headers instruct applications how to collect user data and apply that information to display personalized content for each user.

The following mechanisms are available for developing Web applications:

• Configurable response attributes

  Response attributes are sent by the Policy Server in SAML assertions to the SAML Affiliate Agent to be included in HTTP headers or cookies. These are configurable by an administrator using the Policy Server User Interface.

• Default HTTP headers

  The SAML Affiliate Agent has a set of default HTTP headers that it passes to Web applications.
