Configuring Claim forwarding when using REL tags

Both on the client side (Context Service client) and on the server side (Content Service or Session-enabled Content Service), the use of REL tags prompts an edit of the Ambient Data Framework configuration file, cd_ambient_conf.xml. If you use the Context Expression Extension, also perform this configuration.

Procedure

  1. In the configuration location of this Context Service client, open cd_ambient_conf.xml for editing.
  2. Ensure that the file contains a ForwardedClaims section (with a CookieName attribute that defaults to TAFContext) that includes the following forwarded claim:
    <Claim Uri="taf:request:headers"/>
  3. Save and close cd_ambient_conf.xml.
  4. In the configuration location of the Content Service (or of the Session-enabled Content Service, if using), open cd_ambient_conf.xml for editing.
  5. Ensure that the file contains a GloballyAcceptedClaims section that contains the following claim:
    <Claim Uri="taf:request:headers"/>
  6. Also ensure that the Cartridges section contains the following cartridge references:
    <Cartridge File="cwd_engine_cartridge_conf.xml" Category="SYSTEM" />
    <Cartridge File="cwd_engine_cartridge_conf.xml" />
  7. Save and close cd_ambient_conf.xml.
