Through the use of the PingFederate SDK, you can create a custom
authentication selector by implementing the AuthenticationSelector
interface.
Most implementations return
AuthenticationSelectorContext.ResultType.CONTEXT as the result type,
which requires no further action after an upgrade.
If your implementation returns
AuthenticationSelectorContext.ResultType.ADAPTER_ID (an IdP adapter
instance ID) or AuthenticationSelectorContext.ResultType.IDP_CONN_ID (the
connection ID of an IdP connection), you must update the descriptor instance of your custom
authentication selector to call the setSelectAuthnSourceResultType method
with an input of true. For each authentication policy path that ends with
an instance of such custom authentication selector, you must ensure that its action is set
to Done.
For more information, refer to the Javadoc for the AuthenticationSelector
interface and the AuthenticationSelectorDescriptor class.
The Javadoc for PingFederate is located in the <pf_install>/pingfederate/sdk/doc directory.
