2.1 STEP 1 - Get XML by XPath
XML parsing is done by default Java DOM parser. Which is able to get items by a specified XPath. XPath is super flexible it allows user to get nodes by attribute value, as well as to group nodes from different parents into single result, as well as chose nodes conditionally etc. etc.
Some XPath examples:

Name | Description | Default | Widget | Validations |
---|---|---|---|---|
OAuth2 Enabled | True or false. | false | Radio group | |
Auth URL | A page, where the user is directed to enter his credentials. Example: https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth | Text Box | Assert to be empty if OAuth2 is disabled and the not empty if enabled. | |
Token URL | A page, where CDAP can exchange authCode for accessToken and refreshToken. Or refresh the accessToken. | Text Box | Assert to be empty if OAuth2 is disabled and the not empty if enabled. | |
Client ID | User should obtain this when registering the OAuth2 application in the service (e.g. Twitter). | Text Box | Assert to be empty if OAuth2 is disabled and the not empty if enabled. | |
Client Secret | User should obtain this when registering the OAuth2 application in the service (e.g. Twitter). | Password | Assert to be empty if OAuth2 is disabled and the not empty if enabled. | |
Scope | This is optional. Scope is a mechanism in OAuth 2.0 to limit an application's access to a user's account. An application can request one or more scopes, this information is then presented to the user in the consent screen, and the access token issued to the application will be limited to the scopes granted. | Text Box | Assert to be empty if OAuth2 is disabled. | |
Refresh Token | This is populated by the button "Login via OAuth 2.0". Since we save Refresh Token (not an access token which is short lived), this should be done only once, during initial pipeline deployment. For more information click here. UI should put an actual value into secure store and put macro function ${secure(key)} a value for extra safety. | Fail is empty and OAuth2 is enabled. |

Transport Protocols | User can add multiple protocols. Which will be offered by client during handshake. | TLSv1.2 | Array | Validate if names are correct |
Cipher Suites | User can add multiple cipher suites. They will be offered by client during handshake. If empty use default cipher suites. This is textBox with comma separated list of ciphers. Since sometimes there can be 20, 30 or more ciphers it is not usable for user to add every one of them manually into an array. | Text Box | Validate if supported by current java implementation |
