Represents a security token that is based upon XML.

GenericXmlSecurityToken

Remarks

Use the GenericXmlSecurityToken class when you receive a token over the wire that is not defined in a specification or there is no way for you to determine the type of the security token. For example, in a federation scenario when you send a Request Security Token (RST) to a Security Token Service (STS) you do not always know the type of the security token returned by the STS. In such cases, you can use a GenericXmlSecurityToken to store the security token as XML along with its internal and external references.

Use the GenericXmlSecurityToken class to define claims using XML when one of the built-in security tokens does not suffice. Other security tokens can define their claims using XML, however the GenericXmlSecurityToken security token generically allows a security token to have an application-defined set of XML.

Constructors

GenericXmlSecurityToken(XmlElement, SecurityToken, DateTime, DateTime, SecurityKeyIdentifierClause, SecurityKeyIdentifierClause, ReadOnlyCollection<IAuthorizationPolicy>)

Initializes a new instance of the GenericXmlSecurityToken class.

Properties

AuthorizationPolicies	Gets the collection of authorization policies for this security token.
ExternalTokenReference	Gets a security key identifier clause that references this security token when this security token is not included in the SOAP message in which it is referenced.
Id	Gets a unique identifier of the security token.
InternalTokenReference	Gets a security key identifier clause that references this security token when this security token is included in the SOAP message in which it is referenced.
ProofToken	Gets the proof token for the security token.
SecurityKeys	Gets the cryptographic keys associated with the proof token.
TokenXml	Gets the XML that is associated with the security token.
ValidFrom	Gets the first instant in time at which this security token is valid.
ValidTo	Gets the last instant in time at which this security token is valid.
