ForgeRock Access Management (AM) is a powerful platform for managing user identities and securing access to resources. One of its most flexible features is the Scripted Decision Node, which allows developers to inject custom logic into authentication and authorization flows. However, working with Scripted Decision Nodes can be challenging, especially when it comes to debugging and ensuring robust performance. In this article, we’ll explore best practices for developing and debugging Scripted Decision Nodes in ForgeRock AM. We’ll cover essential techniques, common pitfalls, and strategies for maintaining high-performance, secure scripts. ...

SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is a widely used standard for web-based identity management. As a developer or system administrator, understanding SAML Response XML is crucial for troubleshooting authentication issues and ensuring secure user sessions. In this guide, we’ll break down the structure of SAML Response XML, explore common issues, and provide practical debugging techniques. Breaking Down SAML Response XML A SAML Response is an XML document that contains authentication and authorization information. Here’s a typical structure: ...

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is a cornerstone protocol in modern federated identity and Single Sign-On (SSO) architectures. While it greatly simplifies the login experience for users, debugging issues with SAML responses can be complex due to cryptographic signatures, strict protocol compliance, and encoding formats. This blog post walks through essential techniques to effectively debug and troubleshoot SAML responses, along with recommended tools and common errors. 🛠️ Recommended Tools for Decoding SAML Responses To debug a SAML authentication issue, you must first be able to inspect the raw SAML response. Here are two essential tools every engineer should have: ...
