How to configure a JSON response in AFX connector capabilities to parse single or multi-valued responses in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle

When configuring an AFX connector such as the RESTful Web Service AFX connector, a JSON response can be configured to return one or multiple values. This RSA Knowledge Base Article describes the syntax to be used when parsing both single and multi-valued responses.

Example of a single-value response:
 

{
"requestNumber":"316",
"tickets": [
"INC0001234"],
"message":"Operation has completed successfully"
}

Example of a multi-valued response:
 

{
"requestNumber":"316",
"tickets": [
"INC0001234", "INC0001234", "INC0001235"],
"message":"Operation has completed successfully"
}

 

Go to AFX > Connectors > {connector name} > Edit > Capabilities tab > {capability name} and scroll down to Brief Response.

Given the examples above, where tickets is the key name:

• To parse the response use the key name only as shown in the example below:

• To fetch a specific value from the array use the key name [#] as in the example below:

• To fetch a single value use the syntax in the above examples or use the key name [*]. The important point here is that key name [*] will not work on a multi-valued array.
