Create a Shared Resource Properties File

TIBCO API Exchange Gateway uses a shared resource properties file to support the user authentication using a file resource. For example, the shared resource properties file defines a property which refers to an XML file containing the user credentials.

TIBCO API Exchange Gateway provides a sample properties file XmlAsp.properties for the shared resource. Use this file as a template and edit the properties, as required.

Sample Property File

The location of the shared resource property file for user authentication using the file resource is as follows:

ASG_CONFIG_HOME/BookQuerySecurity/security/resource/XmlAsp.properties

XmlAsp.properties

com.tibco.trinity.runtime.core.provider.lookup=com.tibco.trinity.runtime.core.provider.authn.xml
# Location of the users, password, and group file.
com.tibco.trinity.runtime.core.provider.authn.xml.fileLocation=XmlAspUsers.xml

Properties

The following table describes the properties for the user authentication using file resource.

Shared Resource Property for XML File Based Authentication
Property Description 
com.tibco.trinity.runtime.core.provider.authn.xml.fileLocation
  Specifies the name of the XML file containing the credentials of the users required for authentication. The location of the XML file can be either a relative path or an absolute file path. The relative file path is relative to the ASG_CONFIG_HOME/ASGProjectConfiguration/security/resource directory.

For example, XmlAspUsers.xml is found in the following directory: ASG_CONFIG_HOME/BookQuerySecurity/security/resource. See Create XML File for Credentials.
