The format for this information is global.parameters.<parameter name>. Some parameters depend on the protocol used to launch the flow, while others are supplied by the PingOne application.

OIDC parameters
Property Description

authorizationRequest

An object that specifies all the parameters from the OIDC authorization request.

authorizationRequest.<customParameter>

A string that specifies a custom URL parameter added to the OIDC authorization request. Replace <customParameter> with the name of the custom URL parameter.

authorizationRequest.client_id

A string that specifies the client ID of the application associated with this authorize request.

authorizationRequest.redirect_uri

A string that specifies the URL of the return entry point of the application.

authorizationRequest.response_type

A string that specifies the code or token type returned by an authorization request. Options are token, id_token, and code.

authorizationRequest.scope

A string that specifies the permissions that determine the resources that the application can access.

authorizationRequest.state

A string that maintains the state between the logout request and the callback to the endpoint specified by the post_logout_redirect_uri query parameter.

authorizationRequest.nonce

A string that is used to associate a client session with a token to mitigate replay attacks. The value is passed through unmodified from the authentication request to the token. This is an optional property for authorization requests that return a code.

authorizationRequest.acr_values

A string that is used by the flow designer to pass in useful information.

authorizationRequest.login_hint

A string that is used to designate a login identifier to pre-fill the username field of the sign-on screen.

authorizationRequest.max_age

A string that specifies the maximum amount of time allowed (in seconds) since the user last authenticated. If the max_age value is exceeded, the user must re-authenticate. If the max_age value is set to 0 (max_age=0), the user is always required to re-authenticate.

authorizationRequest.prompt

A string that specifies whether the user is prompted to sign on for re-authentication. The prompt parameter can be used as a way to check for existing authentication, verifying that the user is still present for the current session.

authorizationRequest.response_mode

A string that specifies the mechanism for returning authorization response parameters from the authorization endpoint. Options are query, fragment, and form_post.

authorizationRequest.code_challenge

A string that is computed from the code_verifier that is used in a Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) authorization request.

authorizationRequest.code_challenge_method

A string that specifies the computation logic used to generate the code_challenge string. The token endpoint uses this method to verify the code_verifier for PKCE authorization requests. Options are plain and S256.

authorizationRequest.code_verifier

A string that is used to create the code_challenge value passed to the authorization server in the request.

authorizationRequest.mobileRequest

An object that specifies OIDC/OAuth2 request parameters.

For example, the following code references the login hint in a flow launched using OIDC:

global.parameters.authorizationRequest.login_hint
SAML parameters
Property Description

samlRequest

A string that specifies all the parameters from the SAML request.

samlRequest.spEntityId

A string that specifies the service provider entity ID used to look up the application. This is a required property and is unique within the environment.

samlRequest.forceAuthn

A boolean that, when set to true, specifies that the identity provider must authenticate the presenter directly rather than rely on a previous security context. If a value is not provided, the default value is false.

samlRequest.passive

A boolean that, when set to true, specifies that the identity provider and the user agent itself must not visibly take control of the user interface from the requester and interact with the presenter in a noticeable fashion. If a value is not provided, the default value is false.

samlRequest.signed

A boolean that specifies whether the SAML assertion should be signed. The default value is false.

samlRequest.subject

A string that specifies the SAML subject ID.

samlRequest.requestedAuthnContext

A string that specifies the authentication methods for the request.

For example, the following code references the subject ID in a flow launched using SAML:

global.parameters.samlRequest.subject
Application parameters
Property Description

application

An object that specifies the configuration information about the PingOne application that initiated the authentication request.

application.homePageUrl

A string that specifies the custom home page URL for the application.

application.id

A string that specifies the application ID.

application.name

A string that specifies the application name.

application.protocol

A string that specifies the protocol for the application. Options are OPENID_CONNECT and SAML.

application.type

A string that specifies the application type. Valid values are WEB_APP, NATIVE_APP, SINGLE_PAGE_APP, SERVICE, CUSTOM_APP, WORKER, PING_ONE_SELF_SERVICE, PING_ONE_ADMIN_CONSOLE, PING_ONE_PORTAL, TEMPLATE_APP, and PORTAL_LINK_APP.

For example, the following code references the application ID in a flow, regardless of the protocol used to launch the flow:

global.parameters.application.id
Universal parameters
Property Description

loginHint

A string that specifies an identifier to pre-fill the username field of a sign-on screen.

maxSecondsSinceLastSignOn

An integer that specifies the maximum amount of time allowed (in seconds) since the user last authenticated. If the user's last sign on in the session is greater than the integer value specified in this property, then existing session information cannot be used to skip authentication or influence any authentication logic. This value is set automatically to 0 if prompt=login is set for an OIDC application or if ForceAuthn=true is set for a SAML application. Otherwise, this value is set to the max_age property value for OIDC applications, if present, or omitted otherwise.

For example, the following code references the login hint, regardless of the protocol used to launch the flow:

global.parameters.loginHint
